Scandia Marine’s Sturdy Stainless Ladder Offers Safe, Easy Boarding and Quick Storage

ScandiaMarine125NEW

ScandiaMarine250Scandia Marine Products has introduced a new dinghy ladder that utilizes their Patent Pending interlocking rung design. This all stainless steel ladder provides any dinghy user a safe and secure method of getting out of the water, in an easy to mount and store package.

Unlike other ladders, the Up-n-Out Dinghy Ladder has no hinges that need lubrication and no hollow tubing to gather water. It stores clean and dry.  Up-n-Out’s unique interlocking rung system makes this possible because it allows solid stainless rod to be collapsed or extended with no additional parts. It automatically forms a rigid structure that gracefully curves outward, underwater, away from the boat when deployed.

The Up-n-Out Dinghy Ladder simply ties to the inside of the dinghy and extends well below the surface so any swimmer can get a firm foothold without a high leg lift to reach the first rung. An oak handle is also conveniently and correctly located at the top to give the swimmer a firm grip while exiting the water. When finished, simply untie, push the rungs together and place into the storage bag.

Up-n-Out Dinghy Ladders come in two models designed to fit inflatable or hard-sided dinghies. Both models are available in the standard 2-step version or longer 3-step version.

Sailing into the Future at Antigua Sailing Week

By Mathew Channer

“Standby tack,” Canadian sailor Katy Campbell orders. The crew scrambles over the sheet lines and braces on the deck.

“Three, two, one, tack!”

I wait until the bow turns into the wind and the headsail snaps over, then crawl over the cabin top of Panacea X to the now windward side. The trim team smoothly sheets on the headsail and a competitor vessel shoots past our stern, feet away, as our Solana 45 beats eastward along Antigua’s south coast.
