Swim Ladder? '83 V-20 Step-Lift Cuddy

Postby bucklahoo » Sat Jul 24, 2021 11:09 am

hi, newbie here.
anyone recommend a swim ladder (at least a 4 step) that fits nicely on the gunwale of a 83 V20 SL Cuddy?
i'm not sure of width of gunwale off the top of my head.
were there any OEM ones available back then that actually attached to clips for the entrance ladder?
thanks

If I'm not mistaken the V-20 had A small platform on one side of the stern with a ladder(or it was an option) I personally would not recommend Hanging a portable ladder over the side, there not very stable or good for the side of the boat. So check out this pic and then try Discount Ramps, Marine Depot Direct or any other site you can find with boarding ladders

Also (after looking at it more) you probably have room to put a full size swim platform on there since you is an I/O
