It requires only a 12 inch wide by 6.5 inch high mounting area, and it is designed to fit most angled or curved transoms, not just flat ones. When not in use, the ladder folds down flat against the transom for a clean, out-of-the-way profile, then swings into position for easy boarding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction is 1 inch diameter anodized aluminum tubing paired with non-slip, oval-shaped anodized aluminum steps, giving swimmers and anglers secure footing even when wet. The ladder is rated for a 250 pound load capacity and includes stainless steel fasteners and a securing strap for mounting and stability. Extended, the ladder reaches 28 inches down and 25 inches up, with a 12 inch width, making it suitable for smaller transoms on jon boats, small runabouts, and similar craft where a full-size ladder will not fit.\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 EPU3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact 3-Step Transom Ladder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Steps:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aluminum, anodized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\/Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Area Required:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 inches wide x 6.5 inches high\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength (Down):\u003c\/strong\u003e 28 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight (Up):\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFasteners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel, with securing strap included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Folds down \/ extendable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 670541249550\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the mounting area needed for the JIF Marine EPU3 ladder?\u003c\/strong\u003e The EPU3 needs only a 12 inch wide by 6.5 inch high mounting area, making it fit small transoms that cannot accommodate larger ladders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this ladder fit a curved or angled transom?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the JIF Marine EPU3 is designed to fit most angled or curved transoms, in addition to flat ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many steps does the EPU3 ladder have?\u003c\/strong\u003e It has 3 steps, made of non-slip, oval-shaped anodized aluminum for secure footing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat weight capacity does the EPU3 support?\u003c\/strong\u003e The ladder is rated for a 250 pound load capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the JIF Marine EPU3 ladder made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is built from 1 inch diameter anodized aluminum tubing with anodized aluminum steps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ladder fold down when not in use?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the EPU3 folds down flat against the transom for a low-profile, out-of-the-way position when not boarding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow far does the ladder extend when deployed?\u003c\/strong\u003e Extended, the EPU3 reaches 28 inches down and 25 inches up, with a 12 inch overall width.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat hardware is included for mounting the EPU3?\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel fasteners and a securing strap are included with the JIF Marine EPU3 ladder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the EPU3 ladder weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The JIF Marine EPU3 weighs 9 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the EPU3 suitable for small boats like jon boats or runabouts?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, its compact 12 inch by 6.5 inch mounting footprint makes the EPU3 well suited to small boat transoms, including jon boats and small runabouts, where full-size ladders will not fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat steps are non-slip on this ladder?\u003c\/strong\u003e All 3 steps on the EPU3 are oval-shaped, anodized aluminum designed for non-slip footing when wet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JIF Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49025246789851,"sku":"JIF-EPU3","price":143.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/51r4qH0YhFL.jpg?v=1785331085","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/jif-marine-epu3-compact-3-step-transom-ladder-folding-12-inch-wide-mount","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
