Windline TDL-3 Over Platform Telescoping Boat Ladder, 3 Step Aluminum

The Windline TDL-3 is an over-platform telescoping boat ladder with 3 steps, built from aluminum for durability in marine environments. It is designed to mount over a boat's swim platform and extends downward to give swimmers and boarders a stable, secure way to climb in and out of the water. When not in use, the ladder telescopes down into a compact stowed profile, keeping the platform area clear and reducing the chance of snags or tripping hazards while underway.

Deployed, the TDL-3 extends to 34.5 inches in length, giving swimmers solid reach down toward the waterline. Stowed, it collapses to just 16 inches in length and 2.5 inches in height, making it easy to store without taking up significant deck or platform space. The ladder measures 16 inches in overall width with a centerline width of 13.25 inches, and it is finished in black and silver. The telescoping design lets boaters deploy the ladder quickly when needed and retract it just as easily afterward, a practical feature for anyone who swims, dives, or boards frequently from the stern.
