I've spent the afternoon (and various parts of the day making myself a rope ladder..... Cost a fiver for the rope from ebay, and a couple of quid for two cheap broom handles...... already had some varnish.... a drill, a saw and a sander, bit of varnishing and waiting for drying, and then 2 hours of knot work and I produced the following...
Rather pleased with myself, as it looks great... As its made from Poly rope it'll float so no prop fouling issues. The wood doesn't actually do anything other than hold the sides apart, and the ladder will work even if teh wood breaks.... It'll let us swim off the boat, and also aid MOB god forbid....
