Boarding ladder

Has anyone solved this difficult problem? What sort of ladder is best for climbing onto a UFO 34 from the water when you have been for a swim either voluntarily or by accident?

 

On Renegade we have tried a rigid metal one, which hooked over the toe rail (difficult to stow when not in use) and a rope ladder with plastic rungs, which stowed OK, but the rungs are narrow and hurt bare feet.

UFOX for sale

have sent you information regarding the UFOX. Do you have received this information?
I have a special offer for selling the UFOX for the next two weeks. This is becuase I have received an offer for a well maintained Elan 43,(not a charterboat).
I have two weeks time to make a decision, but I cannot afford two boats. So I have decided to try my UFO in the following two weeks for 34500,-- euro fixed price.
I take the VHF and the GPS with me, for the rest she is very complete.
Will you be so kind to put this on the UFO news?

Thanks in advance,

Tide table error for Brest and Oban

There is a serious error in the tidal information for Brest (page 400) and Oban in the Reeds PBO Small Craft 2006 Almanac. We are trying to alert as many mariners as possible to this, and are asking yacht clubs, marinas, harbourmasters, chandleries and bookshops to display a notice to this effect. The correct tidal information is available on our website for download, so please do visit www.reedsalmanac.co.uk

Check your backstay chainplates

Note the "backstay chainplate which was reinforced and bolted to the outside of the transom.(it was the backstay chainplate mounting under the aft deck that failed when the rig was lost) ( the boat was Landamores built)" says Andy Morris
