This Garelick Telescoping Transom Ladder mounts securely on a transom and extends down into the water for easy boarding and climbing down from the boat. This 4-step ladder has integrated self-locking brackets that hold the ladder securely against the transom. The ladder folds down and telescopes into the water. It provides an angled initial step up under the water line that makes it easy to board or climb down from the boat. Nylon bushings between ladder sections provide smooth deployment, and a bungee cord strap to secure the folded ladder is included. This stainless steel ladder is rated to 400 pounds. When extended, it is 34.5-In. (88cm) long, and when stowed, it is a compact 14.5-In. (37cm) long. Its overall height is 1.5-In. (4cm), and it is 12-In. (31cm) wide. Garelick’s advanced design and engineering capabilities allow us to produce a wide variety of stable and safe seat and table pedestals, swim ladders, and marine hardware products for any boat configuration.
