...on a sailsteps boarding ladder

SAILSTEPS FEATURES

〜 marine grade 316/A4 stainless steel components developed and manufactured using computer aided design and the latest CNC laser cutting technology

〜 handcrafted bench-made ladder manufactured with exacting attention to detail.  Every ladder tested to 32 stone / 200kg and rated for 23 stone / 150kg users 

〜 made from African Teak (Milicia excelsa, grade A reclaimed when possible & exact sections / dimensions may therefore slightly vary).  African Teak is classified as 'very durable' due to natural oils providing resistance to rot.  Untreated it will last 50-100 years requiring no treatment for preservation.  If left to weather naturally will turn light grey in a year or two depending on uv exposure

〜  marine grade 316 / A4 stainless steel fixtures / fittings and marine grade epoxy adhesive used throughout

 Disclaimer 
The sailsteps boarding ladder is for amateur use and due care should be exercised when using the product.  Many different toe rail profiles are in use and the user must ensure that the toe-rail on the vessel is a secure anchor point for the hooks, is in good condition and capable of bearing the load transferred from the bracket onto it as sailsteps cannot be held responsible for failure of or damage to the vessel.   Each month the ladder should be checked for damage or loose fixings and in use must be set up so that there are 4 points of contact on the vessel i.e. 2 hooks and 2 stand-offs.  Max user weight 150kg/24 stone.  Users should step straight onto the ladder and not apply any force sideways as the ladder could slide along the toe rail.  Users must not over-stretch to reach a hand-hold or grab-rail etc.  For extra stability the ladder may be secured to the vessel with lines forward and aft to prevent it sliding. 

Important: stand-offs must be inserted at least 3 complete turns into the the inserts and no more than two threads beyond the 'flattened' portion should be visible (see instruction leaflet).
