After years of putting it off and only one week to the opener I've decided it is now or never to do something about a dog deck or ladder. Over the years I've looked at many different things out there, but I'm left wondering why not a permanently fixed swim deck looking thing on the transom? I'd like something solid enough for me to step out on to to pull weeds off the prop when need be, and big enough for my dog to climb in on. I've been looking at the aluminum swim deck on my neighbor's boat all summer and wondering why I don't make something similar for my 14' boat. A pair of brackets something like this with a nice red cedar deck on it. These two are $40 in stainless steel.

So why does a dog ramp have to be on the side of a boat? The odd time I've shot divers out of a boat the dog was always inside with me, usually up on the casting deck in the bow.
