Even the trusty old stepladder could us a little face lift now and then.

Very Nice indeed....it's all those little details that really make a boat look so good...and it is especially satisfying when you do it yourself...

Completing one of the smaller projects, like this stepladder makes the larger ones that are yet to come less intimidating.

The steps sure are heavy. We have been looking at alternatives or modifications to lighten the steps.
There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

For the most part when it comes to wood... heavy translates into sturdy. Now that gravity has a much greater pull on me than in my younger days... heavy works for me just fine. (LOL)

We don't get fat as we get order...we increase our displacement

You can go to a Zen Master or you can go Sailing, either way you end up in about the same place..... a Happy Place

That looks good!! I sometimes wish I had a boat that required all those steps. Good head room.

Ground to windward is dearly bought, but easly spent.
