Hi Folks,
I'm a new member and as usual with new members i come with questions. I want to put a swim ladder on the stern but I'm a 300 + pound guy and I have concerns about the strength of the transom. Any of you folks have any suggestions as to which ladder i should buy and how i should mount it ?
Thanks

Thank you for the response,
The ladder I see at West's site looks like it has plastic rungs however the one you used looks like metal rungs, or am I seeing things incorrectly.
