Its 11 inch hook depth lets the ladder seat securely over larger rail profiles, giving swimmers and boaters a stable, dependable way to re-board from the water. The hooks are vinyl-covered to grip the gunwale without scratching or marring the hull finish, and they fold flat when the ladder is not in use, making it easy to stow aboard between swims.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ladder frame is built from anodized aluminum, a lightweight and corrosion-resistant construction suited to ongoing exposure to saltwater and freshwater. The five-step design extends reach for deep water entry or boats with higher deck profiles, providing more stable, slip-resistant footing than shorter ladders. At 15 inches wide and 60 inches tall, the ladder is compact enough for convenient storage while supporting a 250 pound load capacity for confident boarding.\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 DMT5A-11\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 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHook Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLoad Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anodized aluminum frame, vinyl-covered hooks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foldable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 670541249314\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many steps does the JIF Marine DMT5A-11 ladder have?\u003c\/strong\u003e The DMT5A-11 is a 5-step ladder, giving extended reach for deep water entry or boats with higher gunwale profiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow deep are the hooks on this gunwale ladder?\u003c\/strong\u003e The hooks have an 11 inch depth, which lets the DMT5A-11 seat securely over taller or wider gunwale rails than a standard-depth hook ladder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the hooks scratch or damage my boat's hull or rail?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The hooks on the JIF Marine DMT5A-11 are vinyl-covered, which protects the gunwale and hull finish from scratching while the ladder is hung in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the ladder made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The DMT5A-11 frame is anodized aluminum, a lightweight, corrosion-resistant material suited to both saltwater and freshwater use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much weight can the ladder hold?\u003c\/strong\u003e The JIF Marine DMT5A-11 has a 250 pound load capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the dimensions of the ladder?\u003c\/strong\u003e The DMT5A-11 measures 15 inches wide and 60 inches tall, with an 11 inch hook depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the DMT5A-11 ladder weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ladder weighs 10 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ladder fold for storage?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
