Seafari boarding ladder

seafari25 · #1 07-06-2009, 08:20 PM

Here are some detailed pics of the ladder as promised. As I mentioned, I broke the top step years ago and added the 2x4's so mine does not fold anymore. The ladder is 19" wide outside to outside. The step width is 17 3/4".Mounting height on the bolster is 25 1/2" from the floor. The bottom step is 12" from floor, the next step is 11" from bottom step and it's 10" to the top of the sloped gunwale from the top step. Although I'm not 100% sure, I assume this is the same ladder used on the Sceptre\Tsunami for forward deck access through the windshield.

Yes, it is the same, it was/is used as both a boarding ladder and a ladder to reach the fore deck on the Sceptre's. It was a good idea but most failed and that is why they are so hard to find.

Thanks Brandon,
Dang that boat is well kept lookds like you just pulled it home from the boat show.

Glad I read the post - at first glance I was going "now how the hay does that fold?"

Glad winter's gone and you can get back out to the big pool. Sunscreen, bug spray, and Canadian beer... oh my memories of the Great white north...

Yes, they came on the 23' Sceptres also. I have one exactly like it in my boat. Mine broke too, back in the 80's. I repaired it and use it to this day.
