JIF Marine EEQ1 Outboard Transom Swim Platform with Single-Step Fold-Down Ladder, Stainless Steel Arm

The JIF Marine EEQ1 is a one-step transom swim platform built for outboard (O/B) boat applications. It mounts directly to the transom on outboard-powered boats and provides a stable, walkable surface for boarding and exiting the water. A fold-down ladder is integrated into the platform design, with the ladder mounting on top of the platform itself. The ladder step features a soft vinyl covering, which cushions bare feet and reduces slipping compared to bare metal or fiberglass steps. The platform is supported by a single stainless steel arm, giving it a low-profile mounting footprint at the transom while maintaining a rigid, load-bearing connection to the hull.

The platform surface measures 18 inches in width by 15.5 inches in length, and the complete unit weighs 11 pounds, keeping the addition of a swim platform from adding significant weight to the stern. The platform and ladder step are constructed of vinyl, chosen for its water resistance and foldable design, allowing the ladder to fold up out of the way when not in use. This EEQ1 platform is intended for boat owners who want an easier, safer way to re-board their boat from the water without installing a full-width bolt-on platform.
