Finding a swim ladder for Cal 29
chris chubb2011-07-02 18:21
What is a good side mounted swimming ladder for the 29?
I was thinking of looking for or making one that folds and attaches to the jib track.
Anybody find a good ladder or make one for their 29 or other Cal boat?
We used to have a great long white floating plastic ladder on are old Cal 28, but it looks like they don't make it any more. Most are stern attached and made from metal tubing now.
Any photos, links, or ideas would be great.
Thanks!

we bought a used ladder at calatopia in that matched deck hardware ....
however
I broke the strap pulling my self up out of the water I think it was made by
tailor-made ?? i will check tomorrow edward... it folds together for ez storing
and matched all ready existing deck hardware ... carried for years ... but 1st
time I
used it strap broke ...it has legs that fold out to hold latter stright up &
down
It was nice having a ladder to share the side brith with for all those years !!!
