The other day I came across an OEM Bayliner (US Marine) swim step/ladder same as is on my 85 Capri. It was complete with all brackets and railing that I could not pass it up for the $50 asking price. So now I have another matching swim step.
I'm thinking of adding the second swim step so two people can hang out sitting on the step with their feet in the water. Sort of like a swim platform but with an outboard in the middle! Plus the kids won't be fighting over who gets to sit on the step or fight over who's turn it is to jump off, etc.
I was checking out the boat yesterday and even with two swim steps mounted, there is plenty of room to stand and work on the motor.
Can you think of any drawbacks to having two swim steps?
