JIF Marine EQB2 2-Step Over Platform Telescoping Boat Ladder, 316 Stainless Steel

The JIF Marine EQB2 is a 2-step over platform telescoping boat ladder designed to give swimmers an easy way to board a boat from the water while folding away compactly for storage. The ladder telescopes down into the water for boarding, then folds up and lays flat on the deck or swim platform when not in use, keeping the platform clear and reducing the risk of a tripping hazard underway.

Constructed of electropolished 316 stainless steel, the EQB2 resists corrosion in saltwater and freshwater environments while maintaining a clean, polished appearance. The steps feature flat poly treads with molded handgrips, giving swimmers a secure, comfortable foothold as they climb aboard. The ladder is rated for a 400 pound load capacity across its 2 steps, and its telescoping design extends to a 24 inch length for use, collapsing down to a stowed length of just 13 inches with a 12 inch width for compact deck storage.
