Pete's is the "Tournament Master" edition - gives some extra stuff. Maybe that's the difference?

oooh, cool! What kind of extra stuff came with the Tourney Master editions?

Let's see...on a 225 Osprey?

-Trim tabs
-Double-wide leaning post, folds down to be a seat
-Hard Top T-Top
-HD Aluminum Bow Rail
-Single batt switch, dual w/twins
-Canvas windscreen for T-Top
-Cockpit bolsters
-Fwd rod holders on gunnels
-Porta-potti
-Fresh Water system
-Custom Graphics
-Gold rub-rail insert
-Armstrong Dive ladder

Think that does it...

Hey Bob, tell me more about this Armstrong Dive ladder... I need a longer ladder on my 225. Being a scuba diver, those 2 rungs don't extend low enough into the water for me to haul my fat a$$ up out of the water without bruises! I just have the standard folding ladder, I guess.

Is the Armstrong Dive ladder longer? Any idea where I could find one?

You just need to remember that it's down before you take off - an expensive oops!
Might think about putting a clothes pin on the ignition key when you have the ladder in the water - that'll jog your memory to pull it back in.

Rick,
The one that came on my boat has a locking pin that keeps the ladder in place,and the bracket is hinged and kicks up if you leave it on while under power,no danger of losing it

Nice. That's the kind to get.
I have friends that have a couple bent ones in their garages from leaving them down - didn't have the mount you do.

the ladder on the boat is actually a windline not an armstrong.

Thanks, fellas!

So the Windline bracket looks to be $89, and the 3-rung dive ladder is listed at $121 for the DL-3X.

Does that sound about right, or could I find it cheaper elsewhere? Was hoping not to spend $200 if I don't have to...

Mike,
We don't pay much less than that at OEM cost for the same ladder and mount...

Pete-

Do you know the overall length of that 3-step ladder? Their website didn't give the dimensions that I could see, and I'm debating getting the 4-step ladder to be sure it's long enough.

pete · « **Reply #24 on:** July 25, 2010, 05:44:45 PM »

Glock,
Total length is 36" it is great for diving,you can climb up while wearing fins plenty deep in the water.I like mine,alot.

Mike,
BTW, we use the same Windline that Pete has at Proline. a LOT cheaper than Armstrong...and just as good quality...
