I got myself a 22' StarCraft S/S late last summer and couldn't be happier but during the few times I had it out, I realized how much higher out of the water the boat was compared to my previous boats. I am surrounded by lakes and rivers and most of the launches I use don't have docks and it can be challenging to board the boat.
I have looked around the forums to see if anyone had covered this but I have had no luck.
Does anyone have any suggestions or a link I could use.
Thank you in advance.
This forum has been a tremendous help in the past I'm thankful I stumbled across it

Re: Boarding from the Bow..suggestions please

i've seen some creative applications of old aluminum ladders for boarding ladders and such. what about a section (or 2, you can make it bi-fold if neded) of old ladder hinged to the bow with removable pins?


and the next time you're out on a rough day, be glad for the fact that getting into the bow is hard....the waves find it that way too, compared to modern boats.
