Default How hard is it going to be to add a ladder???

Good afternoon! I recently bought a 2005 Dominator with no ladder on the back. Has anyone ever added one? How hard is this going to be to do? What is the make and model? Thanks!!

boatnt:

I took the drive apart and had the piece that broke off welded back on. I needed to pull the drive anyway to have them serviced. Was planning on doing that in the spring but oh well. We pulled the tabs and indexed them so there is no way they can ever hit again no matter the position of the tabs or drives. We also found that the port drive and motor is about 2 inches off center. When you compare the port to the starboard they are not in the same position with relation to the center line of the boat. Anybody else have this "offset" to port?

Call the factory and talk to Joe. He can set you up with all the hardware and instructions to add the ladder. It is not hard to do. Joe can also fill you in on the motor offset.

When I added my ladder the kit from the factory included everything, even the PVC spacers you will need for it to sit at the right angle under the platform.
