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.
