in my previous post I got information about launching and retrieving my 19ft open bow Fiberglas boat by myself. Ok, so that's taken care of but I need a way to get in and out of my boat. I'm 5 ft 6 with a 25 inch inseam and am round. I've seen the trailer bow steps they sell but their out of my price range. I'm looking for what others have done to take care of the problem. I know I'm not the only one and am looking for an inexpensive solution, hopefully diy. All thoughts except lose weight are welcome.
