Title: how are you guys getting back in your boats?
Post by: ka0tyk on May 17, 2011, 06:05:47 PM
lets say im in the middle of the lake, mother nature chimes in and i hop into the water to make sure nothing got sucked into the intake... heh.

how are you guys crawling back in?  i do have a small rideplate on my panther but i dont think crawling over it would be a very good option and to hell with people who get my nice polished motor all wet and waterspotted haha.  i think putting a swimstep on it would look like poop.  i dont want a ladder.  i remember my dads boat it was easy since it was a vdrive with plates.

 I pull myself up onto the bow and do the wet seal slide across the bow.

I can't find it online and it's too dark to get a picture of the step I have in my boat.  It is a single step rope "ladder" that has a mount attached to the inside gunnel and is hung over the side when needed.  I have it mounted just behind the back seat so when you pull yourself up you just step over and into the back seat area.

I'll try to get some pics tomorrow.

I usually have whoever is still in the boat throw me a a rope and skis. Once they get me on plane I reel myself in and step right into the boat. This way I can keep my sexy baggage and still get in and out of the boat.

I only pull over at sand bars so I can easily crawl my fat azz back in lol. Thinking of the rope ladder thing though.

As I get pudgier and pudgier, and lazier and lazier, where I used to be able to pull myself onto the deck or in from the side pretty easily probably looks more like I'm wrestling  with an alligator than trying to get into the boat..... :o

I think it's time for adult diapers instead of "checking for a clear intake" in the middle of the lake/river......... >:D

Are you guys freaking kidding me?   I weigh nearly 300 lbs and I can still get myself back in the boat, even after an intensive ski run.
Y'all are kidding right?   I've seen a lot of you all on the water, and none of you looks to be a much a fat ass as me.  Sounds like some of you need to put down the 16 oz. aluminum cans and start piciking up some IRON.

My swimdeck is about as high off the water as the back of your boats.  And I didn't say anything about getting into MY boat.   I said THE boat, as in what most of y'all are rockin'.   To get in the front of the Wriedt, you are gonna have to shimmy up the anchor chain like any self respecting pirate would do to board a barge.

I get in kind of like the wales do at Sea World, but instead of fish my wife holds a beer over the the water. :beer:  It works wonders. Try it.

I am 6'6" .....getting in sucks.

I have an old set of ski rope handles (the double handle type) and I tied one to the front motor mount just long enough to throw over the side and drop about a foot and a half below the water line, makes it way easier to get in the boat. Use the handle like a stirrup on a horse saddle.. ;)

If you have sissy Mary feet like me you may want to use the handles with the foam grips....Yeah I know, I'm a puss.  ::)

The cool part is no on will know how you did it if you play your cards right  >:D

Make sure to pull in back in and secure it before you take off..... :sly:
