    Ladder XB21 ProSport

    I couldn't find an after-market boarding ladder that suited my requirements, so I fabricated this ladder for my XB21 ProSport. Drilling and screwing to the hull was a definite "No" for me. My boat came with the factory Power Pole mounts that I utilized as a means of attachment. Here's a couple of pictures of my ladder in both deployed and stowed positions. I still need to make a few minor refinements, but overall I think it will work well.
    I've also installed a bimini top, along with a 2 position trolling motor mount. I'll post pics of these in separate threads at a later date. Busy getting ready for an extended weekend at Bull Shoals lake.

    Nice. All aboard ladders makes one for our boats. He knows how to trim the upper step to fit inside our sponsons. Here is a link to his site:

    His name is David Hahn and he is very accommodating.

    I looked at the "All Aboard" but we like to ski and swim, so an unobstructed easy access ladder was essential for the family.

    Yeah it sure would be nice if Allison could build a ladder for our boats that was built into the hull. Every bass boat should be required to have a boarding ladder.

    My wife uses the all aboard ladder on a regular basis and it works well. I use it also and it’s easy to use
