    Default Trailer ladders


    Do any of you have trailer steps that you recommend? I want to be able step out the boat to winch it on. Getting too old for those gymnastic moves needed.

    I feel your pain. I know the day is coming for me to look into these so I’m paying attention.

    I bought a cheap one from eBay that is 3 steps and has a hand rail, and there is a little flex to it, even with my slender body. If you are over 165 lbs, you will want to buy one of the good ones, such as an EFX or Trick Step. Regardless, I can still live with my purchase.
    If I'm not at work or taking kids to their activities, you might find me on "The Rez" fishing. If not there, I could be in the garage working on my boat.

    I'm 64 and still in good health and my balance is fine, but I know it's not going to last forever. To get ahead of it, last summer I built a set of steps for my trailer. Wish I'd done it years ago, it makes a huge difference.

    I own a set from BoatEFX. They are Ohio based and make a great product(s). I am completely satisfied with mine.

    Currently using trick step. Have had them for a few years now. Also like the looks of the boatefx step. Both of these units are expensive but if it elimanetes falling worth every dollar in my opinion. Seen a lot of nice homemade steps made if you can do that kind of work
