I bet this has been asked, but I cant find it.

Noticed when I took the boat out last weekend, one of the covers over the ladder steps is missing. I have the two step ladder under the swim platform. Is it possible to get a replacement somewhere?

I used this...Perfect width just need to cut length to size.
Also use some acetone to remove all the adhesive from the other pieces that fell off.

Does anyone know what item was being shown before the Amazon link broke?

BBP,

That sounds like a reallly good idea.

Do you find it very hard to get the grips to go onto the ladder rung? Do you use any adhesive?

No they slid right on and no issues since. I think I got 5/8 size?

I found it (again)!

I bought these back in sept 2021 and have gone through 6 in that same time (just ordered another set). I tried golf grip tape but the glue was deactivated in water. Any other suggestions? Really only a problem when the ladder is left down.
