    2011 Z8 Ladder and PowerPoles with S-2-2 Bracket?

    Anyone with a Z8 and Powerpoles - does the Ladder clear the poles with the S-2-2 bracket? This is the bracket recommended on the PowerPole bracket finders - for my JP (10" Atlas) and Hull but wondering if the ladder will hit or not.

    Thanks.

    I have a braced bracket on my z8. 10" jackplate with my 10' lower poles, wit the anchor up I can push it towards the motor 1/8th inch and the ladder will function. When the anchor is in use if the boat swing one way or the other it will either work on its own or it will not work. If you know what I mean

    Fishy - Thank you, much appreciated - hopefully my setup will line-up in a similar way. My family and I swim from the boat - I fish solo quite a bit and I almost fell in this weekend in rough water so a ladder is sort of important to me (and wasn't sure if I would need a E-ladder/Powerpole deal or not).

    Thanks again.

    Yeah it's not much effort to slip it past, I could probably make sure to mount to the side of the jackplate even more straight up, and then it may not take any effort.
