noah Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 I would like to add a boarding ladder to the back of my 2007 2200v. I have a transducer on the starboard side and extended trim tabs. I am considering mounting an Armstrong 3 or 4 step single pole ladder on the starboard side because of easier access to the under side of the deck. I am maturing and fish alone frequently. Getting back into the boat if I should fall out has become a real safety issue for me. I would like to know which bracket to use for the ladder and where do you store the ladder when it is not in the bracket so that it can be reached from the water? I would appreciate any information you could give me on installation and use of this ladder. T:hank you. Bob W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyshon Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 There are quite a few boarding ladder/ platforms available. Not a huge fan of the bracket types as it is difficult to engage the ladder into the bracket once you are outside the boat! I will take a picture of the platform I have on my 2200 and post it here.

Williep Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Not sure what the back of a 2007 look's like but this is what I have on my 2001. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the step just flip all the way over to lay flat on the white deck (starboard or whatever it is)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Williep Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 It flip's most of the way up. I got it from Overton's in 2001 and it look's like they don't have that same one anymore but I do remember I bought the one for the I/O because I wanted two handle's to grab when boarding. http://www.overtons.com/Boating-Marine/Ladders-Swim-Platforms/Swim-Platforms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noah Posted July 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Quote Nice looking platform and ladder. Did you through bolt it or use 5200 with screws? Thanks for your reply. BobW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoneyB Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 It sounds like your main reason for considering a boarding ladder is if you accidentally end up overboard. That would be the biggest reason for not using the single pole bracket type . I would recommend a platform like the other guys have already posted with a three step ladder. That third step makes a huge difference getting on the ladder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
