One of the disadvantages/tradeoffs of my new ride is the high freeboard. This makes boarding the boat from a tender more difficult, and this is an issue that is important for us right now since we have a toddler and another kiddo on the way.
I'm looking into adding a swim step to the stern of my boat, and cu$tom is always an option, but in my searchings I found a company that makes stainless and teak bow platforms and stern platforms/swimsteps.
What do you think? Looks exactly like what I want, at a fraction of custom price, but ordering manufactured goods directly from a Chinese website has always spooked me a little....
1202036, Boat Teak Swim Platform, With Folding Ladder 3 Steps, [1202044] at China Seawell Marine
I also just noticed that the website seems to stock a LOT of marine goods. fenders for $10 for example that "look" like the ones that are $40 at We$t Marine.
