We have a 2006 Bennington triple pontoon boat on a large lake. This model has a front center gate in addition to the port and stern gates. I think the model number is 2075GSi, but that is from memory.
It would be very useful to us to be able to use the front center gate when beaching the front of the boat on the small islands in the lake. However, at that point, the foreward deck is a considerable distance above the beach. This makes an exit ungainly, and reboarding very difficult. We've suffered some scratches and bruises when doing this.
Is there a Bennington or third-party product that can provide a simple boarding ladder that can be permanently affixed to the front of the boat? (There is a substantial lug unused on the center pontoon that could be a good anchor point for a ladder).
I have seen 'fold under' ladders, but those are only useful on dual pontoon boats. The central pontoon on our craft blocks use of those.
Thanks!
