Measure for Fit
Locate the space on your transom where it would be best to mount your swim
platform ladder. Measure the top of where you will be mounting the ladder to the
top of the waterline and compare it with the length of the ladder to determine
how far (or how many steps) the ladder will extend below the waterline. The more
steps below the waterline the easier it will be to board.
For the width,
measure the available width clearance where you will be mounting the platform
ladder on the transom. Be sure to take in account the boat motor or any other
accessories you will have on the stern of your boat. This will let you know the
maximum width available for mounting your platform ladder.
Important Note
Backing plates or large washers are strongly recommended for all ladder installations. They will help distribute the load over a larger area to avoid potential damage. In some instances failure to use a backing plate may void the manufacturers warranty.
