Product Description
Wichard Emergency Boarding Ladder
Grab loop hangs approximately 10" below bottom of storage bag
Deployed length of ladder is 5 feet, 5 inches
The Wichard emergency boarding ladder is based on an "etrier" (a-tree-ar) used in rock climbing as an aid for climbing sheer faces
The ladder is made from doubled layered nylon webbing stitched to withstand 6000 lb loads
Designed to be attached to a life line stanchion, pad eye or cleat, its glow in the dark loop hangs over the side ready to be grabbed or deployed in seconds
Unlike a rope ladder, the etrier will not collapse when stepped on because the steps hang from a center strap
The rungs are double layered to keep them open and easy to step into
A forged shackle secures the ladder to an attachment point
The emergency boarding ladder is packed into a 1000 denier Cordura bag ready to be mounted
Wichard recommends that you use two ladders, one for each side
