So Lucky what did you find out about the swim ladder? Had you ordered it or not? If not, I remember someone posting the same yet figured out how to nicely install them since they're so difficult after the clam shell is complete....

The swim ladder goes on before the top cap of the boat does! It has to to gain access to all four bolts. To install the ladder after requires some tricks for sure.
Also the ladder that Kan posted pics of works very well. My buddy has a stanless steel ladder that extends telescopic, and it binds up over age. Hard to put away, jams.

Hey Guys,
I have not had time to tackle this yet however, I am pretty certain no swim ladder based on option list and photos of my boat.
I will have to make sure to get Sunsation to install one for me though. Family boat has to have one or I am dead meat.
Thanks for all the input.
Counting the days till lauch! This is my first larger offshore and I am excited as all heck.

Hey Guys,
I had the Sunsation guys add the swim ladder. Somehow I had no idea it was an option.
MitcherT was there yesterday at the same time painting the matching MC numbers.
Now I just have to see if Beacon Cove can fit me in early and I can take her for a spin.
