I recently purchased a 2003 Boston Whaler Sport 130. I would like to install a emergency boarding ladder, without disrupting the rub rail. Any suggestions?
I have a 1978 13 foot sport and fabricated a foot loop out of dock line. Mine is attached permanently towards the rear of the boat about where the driver’s seat is. Tuck it under the seat or console. It is easily reachable should you swim up to the side of the boat. I took some time testing it out and adjusting length, etc. while at the dock until I felt comfortable with it. A piece of mind if you fall out of the boat while you’re alone. Only issue might be what to attach it to. Perhaps to the leg of the console. Not sure what your year boat has. I have some custom rails that are very strong.
