I measured the drop on my 2000 Searay 380 AC from the salon floor down to the engine room floor. It is 46 inches. I am forced to step on appendages of the #2 engine to get into and out of the engine room, as there is no ladder. Not good. A large part of the salon floor hinges up to service the engines, (which is a great feature) so there is no easy way to attach a ladder firmly to both the engine room floor and the salon floor, which rises when you lift it. So I am designing a two-step arrangement over the waste tank, using the engine bearers to support the steps, with no attachment to the salon floor. But before I do all this I wonder:
Does any one know whether these models had an engine room ladder option?
I also wonder if I am the only one who needs this, as I have not found any other posts on this. Or are all 380AC owners are very athletic?
