I knew nothing about them until I saw this. I need to install one, or a similar product, I have become too old and too fat to shimmy in and out of the boat, esppecially when I am trying to make it to the tongue without getting my feet wet.

I had to get a set, after my back surgery.. they work well.. the old boy that makes then and I had a slight difference in just what I wanted and he sent what he thought I needed ... But, I told him that I had about 10,000 fishing buddies between here and the west coast (closer to 3,000)... He called me back and ask what I needed to make it right; and he did with no additional charge in making or shipping.. You will have to do some measuring  on your boat because; each set is hand made to order...

Had a man-step on my last 2 boats. Wouldn't be without it. I'm 65 but you don't have to be older to appreciate them. Comes in handy when you're trying to keep your feet dry while launching.

If you fish in the winter. Unhooking the boat can get dicey. A step would be good even for a fairly fleet almost 50 guy. The only bad I see, a step could get into ones vehicle.

Put a single step which cost about 25 bucks on the left side of my super guide trailer, step on the folded jack then the step, easily grab the frame of my Millenium seat and my fat 67 y/o bod is up there pretty easily.  Cheap but a lot easier than before.  Did I mention I'm cheap.

Nice, I am not "handy" when it comes to building stuff.

Nothing wrong with being cheap as long as it's done right.
