Measure for Fit
Locate the space on your swim platform where it will be best to mount your 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 ladder on the swim platform. 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 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.
