An embarkation ladder is a ladder used on ships to help people safely get on or off, whether the ship is anchored, docked, or transferring to another vessel or pier. It extends from the deck to the water and works even if the ship is tilted up to 10° forward or back, or up to 20° to the side. It’s an important safety feature at lifeboat stations.

This ladder is made with synthetic rope, which is water-resistant and won’t swell or weaken when wet. It also resists oils, chemicals, rot, mildew, and UV damage, ensuring long-lasting durability. Additionally, the rope floats, unlike manila, which sinks. Designed for marine professionals, our embarkation ladder ensures safe and easy boarding in all conditions, making it a dependable choice for any maritime operation.

Polypropylene (Non-Manila) Rope Boarding Embarkation Ladder - Transfer Embarkation Ladder for Moving Between Vessels - Synthetic Rope Embarkation Ladder for Ship Boarding

The synthetic rope marine embarkation ladder is designed specifically for use in maritime environments, ensuring safe boarding or disembarking from a vessel, whether docked or anchored. It also aids in transferring between the ship and another vessel, dock, or shore.

This ladder must extend from the deck to the waterline and performs well even with up to 10° trim or 20° list to either side. It’s essential for lifeboat stations or adjacent stations where lifeboats are launched alongside the vessel. Built for marine professionals, our ladder guarantees safety and reliability, making it the ideal solution for secure and efficient boarding in any conditions.

Made with a synthetic rope that is water-resistant, the embarkation ladder doesn’t absorb water, so it won’t swell or weaken when wet. It’s also chemical-resistant, handling exposure to oils, chemicals, and solvents better than traditional manila rope. Additional benefits include its durability, as it resists rot, mildew, and UV damage, and its buoyancy—Polypropylene floats, while manila sinks.
