Small Boat Reboarding?

[Lonestar66]

I'm looking for Suggestions on Reboarding onto my 1966 Lone Star Delray 15' Aluminum Ski-About from the water, i want to start getting back into watersports (Skiing, wake boarding, tubing, etc.) and need some ideas of getting people back into the boat from the water. Currently i have a Rope ladder that i use for emergencies but if I'm gonna bring kids out i want something more secure and easier for them. what does everyone recommend for re-boarding devises for small boats?

I use a hook over the gunnel folding ladder. Tried the rope ladder once and cut it up for short bumper ties.

Something like this;

.Turn the motor off, and step onto the antiventilation plate with your right foot, and then onto the transom, with your left foot. Works well on small boats.

I’ve used both step up from motor cavitation plate and folding ladder. Get a ladder. Much more welcoming, easier to climb for most anyone.

Hi. You can get a fender that has a step or two in it. Hang over the side and you can climb back on.

I put a transom tilt switch and that method has become my power elevator.
