I have a 50lb Labrador and I’m looking at easier ways to get her onto the boat from the water. If she’s wearing a life jacket I can grab the handle. I can pull her up but the rest of the family struggles. I can across the Pup Plank and it looks like it would work, just seeing what everyone else does and if there are other options. Ideally I can get something to move between my pontoon and my bowrider. Attached is a photo of the Pup Plank, they are pricey but seem to have decent reviews.

I have a 'Paws Aboard' ladder. It needs to be attached to a swim ladder, but probably could be attached to the boat in a similar way. It is a bit more stable and sturdy for large dogs.

Thanks, I haven’t seen that before. Maybe a little too bulky on the bowrider but looks like it works good.
