    Appreciate Ya'll
    Prey need to advise you to go to Tracker marine on further south on Campbell street as Bass pro does not carry them 2703 south Campbell 417-720-2200 due to China flue

    I took a boat to the fabricator. Told him what I wanted to do and he asked me some questions. Custom designed steps that were built to suit me. I wanted front mounted to the winch stand and frame of trailer for sturdiness. I wanted to have them placed in a manner that would allow me leave the boat down 3 steps with a handhold plus be able to hook boat up with out getting wet. The last step was almost level with the trailer allowing me a platform to stand on and have ample room to hook up.

    This was on a previous boat and can't remember the price but it was considerable less than the steps I saw on line.

    show a good welder some of these photos , you can probably get one made pretty cheap .
    if it is just square tubing it isnt much for a stick of it 20 foot long .
    we buy some metal and fab stuff once in a while at the shop .
    paint it 27 times so it wont rust out ...
    pitch some sand on the steps while the paint is wet on the final coat ....done deal

    I put a set on my trailer, built them out of wood just to get it placed correct and the right height. That allowed me to go and buy just the right amount of metal needed. Have friend with weilder and metal fab saw and we put them together. Put metal tubing for hand rail with a bend that i can get my hands on when i stand up. I am 74 with 2 back surgerys the steps allows me to keep fishing. Have no more then $60. in them.

    Here are couple shots of my trailer. Not the best pics but were in my photos. My tongue does not fold. Made specifically for my trailer, and my needs. Works real good for this Old Man. Hope this helps.Name:  IMG_1410.jpg

    I have the same setup on my Bass Tracker Heritage. It folds up so the tongue can still swing most of the way> Love it!
