    Default Those with boating ladders


    I know I bought a new ladder and installed on my boat last year after having a little problem getting back in the boat and if any of you have ladders or bought one, check them out every now and then, just checked mine this morning and found 3 screws have come loose and were gone and one was on the step which could get someone hurt stepping onto it, and two were missing in places that could slip when used, I know mine has been caught on standing timber here on truman when trolling plus a lot of vibrations from the big motor makes them loose, just a caution note, we don't anyone getting hurt.....

    Well if you wouldn't troll so dang fast it wouldn't have any missin screws. And if you would actually watch for stumps instead of tryin to nap or givin Ron chit than you wouldn't hang it up.

    Drill your holes for the screws then put a daub of silicone sealer in the hole before starting the screw. Screws won't back out.

    The fishing is always great. The catching varies.

    Saw a couple "loose screws" in your boat from time to time, most times they were holding 10' jigging poles.
