Built from 304 stainless steel tubing, it is designed to resist corrosion in both saltwater and freshwater environments, making it a durable choice for boaters, swimmers, and divers who need reliable reboarding access. The ladder features a four-step design with a 7-inch hook depth, giving users a deeper reach into the water and a more gradual climb than shorter two- or three-step ladders, which can be especially helpful for older passengers or anyone who needs extra stability when climbing back aboard. The hooks are vinyl-coated to protect the boat's finish and hull gelcoat from scratching while still providing a secure, non-marring hold over the gunwale. When not in use, the ladder folds flat for compact, out-of-the-way storage. It is rated for a 400 pound weight capacity, and the wide steps are designed to provide secure, stable footing during climbing. Overall dimensions are 18 inches wide by 50 inches high, with a maximum extended height of 48 inches. This ladder mounts in seconds without permanent hardware or drilling, making it a practical option for boaters who want a strong, corrosion-resistant reboarding solution they can add or remove as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e JIF Marine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e DMT4-7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gunwale Hook Ladder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Steps:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHook Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 inches W x 50 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 400 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aluminum, Stainless Steel (304 stainless steel tubing, vinyl-coated hooks)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Folding gunwale hooks, tool-free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 670541249376\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many steps does the JIF Marine DMT4-7 ladder have?\u003c\/strong\u003e The DMT4-7 is a 4-step gunwale hook ladder, offering a longer climb than shorter 2-step or 3-step designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the hook depth on this ladder?\u003c\/strong\u003e The hooks on the JIF Marine DMT4-7 extend 7 inches deep over the gunwale, which gives a secure, deep-set hold on the boat's rail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much weight can the DMT4-7 ladder support?\u003c\/strong\u003e This ladder is rated for a 400 pound weight capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the JIF Marine DMT4-7 made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made from 304 stainless steel tubing, chosen for corrosion resistance in both saltwater and freshwater, with vinyl-coated folding hooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need tools to install this ladder?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The DMT4-7 mounts by hooking over the gunwale in seconds, with no drilling or permanent hardware required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the hooks scratch or damage my boat?\u003c\/strong\u003e The folding hooks on the DMT4-7 are vinyl-coated specifically to protect the boat's finish from scratching where the hooks contact the gunwale.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the overall dimensions of this ladder?\u003c\/strong\u003e The JIF Marine DMT4-7 measures 18 inches wide by 50 inches high, with a maximum extended height of 48 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the DMT4-7 ladder weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ladder weighs 11.25 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ladder be stored easily when not in use?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the DMT4-7 folds flat for compact storage once it is unhooked from the gunwale.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the DMT4-7 suitable for divers and swimmers who need deep water access?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 7-inch hook depth and 4-step, 48-inch maximum height design give a deeper reach into the water, making it well suited for swimmers and divers reboarding from deeper water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is the JIF Marine DMT4-7 ladder?\u003c\/strong\u003e The DMT4-7 is finished in white.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JIF Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49025245380827,"sku":"JIF-DMT4-7","price":150.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/41ewC4K-ekL_608df58d-5d10-463c-a489-8162084746bb.jpg?v=1785331084","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/jif-marine-4-step-stainless-steel-gunwale-hook-boat-ladder-7-inch-hook-depth-400-lb-capacity-dmt4-7","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
