Hello,

I recently acquired a 1998 25ls that I have been refurbishing. My boat was missing the ladder when I purchased it. Any ideas where I can acquire a ladder that will work?

Also can anyone here please post a picture of the ladder and how it mounts to the boat?
I have searched and have not been able to find any pictures of the ladder with the lid open showing how it mounts.



Thanks!

Hey 502ls..so glad you found us!

Did you try greatlakesskipper.com? They have some garelick ladders that might work for you. Click here. Hopefully a pic will show up from another 25LS member.

Any pics of yours?

And welcome aboard mate!

Hello, thanks for the response! I have seen that site before. However, the issue is I have never actually seen the factory ladder or how it mounts to my boat so I am not sure which would be best for my application.

Roger..maybe post a pic of that area...and your boat of course!

Will do, I don't have any handy, I will have to take some later. I'm guessing it's going to be similar to other ladders from the period.

Anyone? A 23LS will have the same ladder, and I imagine other Cobalt's from the era do also.

I have a 1998 253 Cuddy that I put a swim platform on. I think it will fit if it mounts to the driver side of transom. I'll send a pic when I get home.
