Re-boarding Equipment
A re-boarding device, such as a transom or swim platform ladder appropriate to the size of the vessel, is designed to allow easy re-boarding of your boat from the water. The Small Vessel Regulations require that all boats carry an effective re-boarding device if the freeboard of the boat is greater than 0.5 m. A re-boarding device cannot be part of the propulsion unit.
