    I fell from the bow of Tracker 123s boat last year at LA camp in the parking lot...landed on my side....pretty hard lick on that pavement for this old man ...I grabbed his SpyderLoks on the way down and broke two of the stainless steel screws and pulled the other two out that fastened the base to the deck. Gonna have to be more carefull Don....we dont bounce like we used too.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    Man hate to hear it, hope you get well soon. That getting off the boat and trailer can be a tricky situation for sure... be careful.

    Until you get your steps, try what I do, LET YOUR TAILGATE DOWN. Step off boat on to tailgate, sit down, u got it then!

    Sorry about your fall.
    I installed a Drotto Boat Latch on my trailer. It eliminates the need to climb on my trailer to release my boat. A rope can be attached to it and it can be released from the the cockpit seat.
    I use a retractable dog leash attached to the boat and just trip the Drotto release when I launch. I will never have another trailer without one on it. There are videos on YouTube showing them in use.

    D Step has the dimensions on their website for the II model. If you have the material and welder it wouldn't be hard to build. Could change it up some to meet your needs.
