Ladder for CD 27

Post by Walter Hobbs »

Hello,

Looking for a folding boarding ladder to bolt to the transom of my CD 27.

Seems this may have been a factory option, local 28 and 30 " came with the ladder".

An OEM ladder would be ideal but looking for one that will work.

Thinking maybe someone is parting out a 27 although I don't really like to see a CD go that route.

Online search has not been productive so far, will keep looking.

Thanks for your consideration.

Walter:

From what I have heard this company makes a quality boarding ladder. They are on the "pricey" side but apparently worth the price.

Good luck :!:

Thanks Roberto,
I have looked at their website and they do look like great ladders.
I'm trying to get something a little less expensive. May have to go with them but not till next season.

Have you checked any consignment shops in your area?
They often have such from salvage.

I have a CD33 from which I removed the stern ladder to install a wind vane. Let me know if interested. I can send photos and dimensions if you'll send me your eMail or I can text them to you. Never tried to post photos on the CD Board so not sure I would be successful.
