    For clarification. The step is an option/upgrade. The VIN they would need as they won’t order anything without it or HID for boat accessories to be sure it is compatible.

    A wench might cause untold problems for a married man. Spelling is critical here.

    I just assumed she needed help getting in the boat.

    I thought maybe it was like he was making her walk the plank.

    I have an '08 Z9 and just went in to Bass Pro's service dept. They didn't need my HID or trailer VIN. They had it in stock. Just make sure to have an actual Nitro trailer as the mounting is specific to it. The winch post has to be vertical and not angled in any way, and there needs to be a flange just under where the winch mounts for the step to mount to (need to drill two holes in the flange if not already existing). If it worked for an '08, it should work for a 2014.

    Friend of mine picked up one from BPS for his 2010 Z8 and made a couple minor modifications to make it work. Same step as my 2015 Z8 and you can see the short 2" extensions needed to keep from drilling holes through the factory step support. 1/4" X 1" flat bar material with hole top and bottom to fit step and winch bracket.
