I have the same one and it works great however, it will sometimes detach (but floats) in rough water. |

| I also have a dive type ladder. It has a pin going through the bracket to keep the ladder from comming off. |

Makes sense.
I'll have to look to see if mine is set up to receive a pin (Boat didn't come with one - but could have been lost).
Thanks
Bye the way - this is my 300th post (although it took me better than 4 years) |

| these are great - you can climb them with fins on and they float |

| Mine has a plastic C clamp, almost an O, that turns to lock ladder in place. Just don't forget to take ladder off when you're ready to rock!! :yak: |

Mounting after factory is still a prob. Not sure how to get back there.
How about a cheap rope type ladder that you could tie off the stern rail or cleat? |
