Bought this for my Catalina 22 sailboat transom. Ladder is quite heavy and has a well made appearance. The stainless is bright and shiny giving the appearance of a more expensive ladder. How well the finish will hold up long term remains to be seen. Welds are neat and professional. Steps are covered with a plastic covering that is flat on top and has a modest embedded tread pattern. Easier on your feet than those round rungs. They hurt! The brackets for bolting fast are a solid feeling 1/16" thick stainless. Brackets are really set up for "over the top mounting" in my view. In my case the ladder will hang on the brackets. I did not like the hole positioning for the hanging use. Holes are too close to the bottom of the bracket so I drilled an additional hole higher up and will mount it there. The provided holes don't provide enough support towards the top. No hardware is provided. You must buy your own stainless bolts. Four are required. Brackets are pre-drilled with two holes as 5/16 ths inch. Initially the collapse feature seems a bit sticky. Will salt water make it worse?? Don't know ... Maybe it will loosen up in time. If you are doing a transom mount as I am, the provided brackets provide almost no "toe room" on a near vertical transom. I am installing 3/4" Starboard spacers under my brackets to create just a bit of stand off from the transom. Thicker might be required but 3/4 is what I have on hand. Inch or even inch and a quarter would probably be better. Consider if your transom is vertical, angled in or angled back. In the hanging mode the ladder is free to clunk and swing. Some sort of stop or bumper may have to be made. The brackets could also be squeezed some. If you have a stern rail you could tie it up but it might not be pretty. I'll be making a bumper as necessary. This is a very nice ladder over all from outward appearances. You'll have to make it work for you as I have. UPDATE: After mounting the ladder on my Catalina 22 I have found that the ladder tends to swing in towards the transom with weight on it. This happens with the boat on the trailer. The result is a reduction in "toe room" despite the addition of the 3/4" spacers. Something will need to be added to stop the ladder from swinging in against the transom. How it will act with the boat floating I'm not sure.
