I built this myself from 1in stainless and wooden steps. The width of the
ladder was determined by the wooden steps. Photo 1 shows the 4 point
attachments to give lateral stability.
Photo 2 shows a curved top to
allow better access for hips.
Photo 3 shows the ladder extends about 3ft
into the water, this is great when you are tired. I use a lanyard attached
to the bottom section for lowering and retrieving, the line is wrapped
around the tubing only to allow lowering the ladder if you happen to fall in.

South: The Endurance Expedition
Shackleton's near-fatal journey to the Antarctic has received a
lot of press in recent years. This is Shackleton's own account—quiet,
understated, and riveting. It also describes the travails of the Aurora
expedition, intended to lay the groundwork for Shackleton on the other
side of the continent.
