With extra-wide, slip-resistant steps and a 400 lb. weight rating, it delivers the kind of confidence that narrow-step ladders simply can't match.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStainless steel rails resist corrosion in both fresh and saltwater environments, while the powder-coated aluminum steps stay cool underfoot and drain immediately so there's no pooling water. The stern-mount design installs directly onto factory pontoon decks, and the one-step retraction system folds the ladder away cleanly when you're underway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteps: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 42\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight capacity: 400 lbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRail material: Stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStep material: Powder-coated aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount type: Stern mount (factory pontoon deck compatible)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ABYC standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-draining design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: 239-2025041871\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBest Use Case\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ladder is the right fit for pontoon boats where boarding from the water is a regular activity — swimming, tubing, watersports, or simply helping passengers back aboard. The wide steps and high weight rating make it especially well-suited to family boats where multiple body types and abilities need to use the ladder comfortably. The stern-mount design is optimized for factory pontoon decks; confirm your deck configuration before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAlso Consider\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/dock-edge-2044f-welded-aluminum-fixed-wide-4-step-dock-ladder\"\u003eDock Edge 2044F Fixed Wide 4-Step Dock Ladder\u003c\/a\u003e — for fixed dock or seawall installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/dock-edge-2043f-welded-aluminum-fixed-wide-3-step-dock-ladder\"\u003eDock Edge 2043F Fixed Wide 3-Step Dock Ladder\u003c\/a\u003e — compact fixed dock ladder option\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/ladders-and-boarding-equipment\"\u003eBrowse all Ladders \u0026amp; Boarding Equipment\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eParts Desk Insights\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SureStep is Lippert's premium pontoon ladder line and is notably wider and more heavily rated than most OEM-style replacements. The 400 lb. capacity and ABYC compliance make it a strong recommendation for customers upgrading from a stock ladder. The stern-mount design is specific to pontoon decks — it is not suitable for dock or seawall use. If a customer is unsure whether it fits their deck configuration, the mounting footprint dimensions should be confirmed before purchase. One-step retraction is a key selling point for customers who want a clean, unobtrusive look when the ladder is stowed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LNS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51186624987172,"sku":"239-2025041871","price":1434.39,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/239-2025041871_as2.jpg?v=1785262376","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/lippert-surestep-pontoon-boat-ladder-5-step-42-400lb","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
