I recently bought my first boat, a 2003 Hurricane Fun Deck 226 FF. The ladder, mounted on the starboard side of the boat next to the outboard motor is broken at the hinge (I figure the ladder was left down and got ripped off). I do not have the bottom half of the ladder. The ladder does not have any identifiable marks except the safety sticker with the code "CD034" in the bottom right corner. Below are some pictures:
1. What's left of the ladder.
2. Connections for the bottom half of the ladder.
3. Extra piece I found on the boat.
The dimensions of the ladder are 11" center-to-center on the poles where the rungs are. It is approximately 28" tall from where the ladder attaches on the "skirting rail?" to where it attaches to the hull.
I am looking for the least expensive fix but am not opposed to just buying a new ladder if I can find one that fits. Any suggestions are welcome, including specific places to buy the parts! I bought a removable ladder to attach to the side, but it was for a pontoon and the legs that swing out to give support against the pontoons were to short and put the ladder at a bad angle against the hull. I could modify that ladder, but would rather not have to rig up a $150 ladder that involves putting holes in the deck floor if at all possible.
