Has anyone mounted this specific Ladder on there Pro Guide Transom? I am trying to figure out the best hardware to use to mount it to the back of my boat.

Since I will be unable to access both sides of the transom, do you think it would be wise to just use sheet metal screws? I would like it to be a sturdy as possible and able to support a 200 lb man.



I have access to Ace and Home depot, so it shouldn't be difficult to find the hardware, I just do not know what I should use.



Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

I would strongly recommend using SS bolts, fender washers (both sides), and nylock nuts with 3M 5200 sealant. Through bolting will make it a secure attachment to your vessel and the 5200 applied between the SS fender washers will seal the attachment points once and for all. Adding a ladder to your boat is a permanent decision, so measure twice, drill once. Good luck! ;)
