Garelick Over-Platform 6 Step Wide Telescoping Ladder, 400 lb Capacity, 19686

The Garelick Over-Platform 6 Step Wide Telescoping Ladder (part number 19686) is a wide-body boarding ladder built for larger boats with a transom platform. Two extra steps in the water add 24 inches of length compared to standard telescoping ladders, giving boarders a more comfortable, angled climb back aboard. The 6 steps fold out and over the platform edge, then telescope down easily for deployment, and fold back over onto the platform for compact stowing when not in use. Flat poly treads on each step add comfort and traction underfoot, while nylon bushings between the ladder sections provide precision sliding and help prevent the ladder from deploying accidentally while it is flipped into the water. Mounting is handled by heavy duty 6 inch folding gudgeons designed for easy installation at the transom platform, and a bungee cord securing strap is included to hold the ladder in place when stowed. The ladder is rated to a 400 lb weight limit, and is built in aluminum with a silver finish for durability in a marine environment.
