Not sure if it is the same type ladder, but the one on my 39 broke off when my Brothers 300#+ Stepson was climbing out. I had to Gaff him in using the boom, halyards, and winch.
It was a not-so-good design, right angle welded 1" tubing just fuse-welded onto a round plate, I think a 1" hole punched out and fused joint. I removed it and re-welded, and also a fillet weld on the outside, I think it could handle him now if he were to ever try it again. Altho I think he weighs a little more by now. . .

The quick replacement I picked up to board port or starboard is an unworkable solution. Got any suggestions about rebuilding the original or a better port or starboard solution? I would like to board after swimming and, of course, be able to board a MOB. I gut feeling is that the original position was awkward. Alex, Dulcibella, Nanaimo, BC
