Garelick 19676 Over Platform Telescoping Ladder, 3-Step, 304 Stainless Steel, 275 Pound Capacity

The Garelick 19676 is a 3-step over-platform telescoping boarding ladder built from electropolished 304 stainless steel and rated to support up to 275 pounds. It is designed to mount to a boat's swim platform using standard folding gudgeons with a convenient grab bar, giving swimmers and divers a secure handhold while boarding. The steps fold out and over, then telescope down for use, and retract to fold flat over the platform for compact stowage when not needed. Nylon bushings are fitted between the ladder sections to prevent the ladder from inadvertently deploying when it is flipped down into the water. Each step uses a flat poly tread to improve footing comfort and grip compared to bare metal rungs. The ladder comes as a 4-piece pedestal system that is fully stowable, and includes a bungee cord securing strap to hold the folded ladder in place while underway. It is made in the USA. With a deployed length of 34.5 inches and a stowed length of just 14.5 inches, it is well suited to boats and platforms with limited storage space where a low-profile, flush-folding boarding solution is needed.
