    Good idea and results. You might consider some non-skid application to lessen a chance of fall when wet.
    Pass the "Sportsman Baton" on before you're gone, promote values for others to hunt and fish upon.

    It was a quick way to make a step without altering the boat trailer.

    I was thinking anti skid tape or possibly bed liner paint. It was a rough draft to see it it would work as needed before I added anymore money to the project

    They have black stick on non skid stuff different widths at Lowes....its made for stair treads....but it will work. It's comes in different sizes....comes in a roll.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    If you step on the trailer tongue, in the process of getting to the step, the non-slip would help there also.

    Mine has to be too far back to get to the tongue without boots, so I let down my tailgate and step over in the back of the truck, on the tailgate and on to the boat. Do the reverse when I load. I know at 70 there will be a day when I can't climb over into the bed but for now it works good.
