[Public-List] Boarding Ladders

[Amy & David Swanson]

#229 came to us with a beautiful folding wooden ladder that mounted to 
the side teak (port side).  While bulky and heavy, it worked very well 
and we found it much easier to board the dinghy or climb in after 
swimming than a stern ladder.

A ladder mounted at the stern is much more useful if you ever have to recover a person from the water, and for recreational use, is much easier to use due to the backstay being there as a handy hand hold when you’re climbing in or out.  (I recall your boat doesn’t have pulpits…)
