Next on my list to repair from this recent purchase, the swim deck folding ladder. I'm not sure if this is an OEM add-on swim deck, or after market, does anyone recognize this setup? Prior owner likely backed into the slip too far a few times, or how she was tied down...spring line not proper. Anyways, cast aluminum = brittle, hence what I have here.

That sucker looks home made.

Any manufacturer or part number stamped into it?

Post up a larger picture including the back of the boat and the full swim platform.
 
If that extended swim platform was an original option from Sea Ray, then it should be in your parts manual. If not, well, then it won't. :)

But, as mentioned above, it looks like a GG Schmitt ladder - try their website or contact them directly to see if they still make it. That ladder WAS used on other Sea Ray's (assuming GG Schmitt), so it's possible to source it that way. But I'd still start with contacting GG directly.
 
Thank you all, looked on their website, although I don't see the ladder on their website now, it sure looks like they made it, there are a few similar models on their website with the powder coated aluminum, and certain parts looks identical.

Thanks again!
 
Hello. wondering if you ever found a replacement and whether GG Schmitt was able to assist. I have a similar issue with the ladder on my 98 SR EC 215. The Sea Ray part# is 0726323

Yeah I got in touch with them......took a few pictures and send to her, she responded with the part numbers, here's a copy of my email...they sent them to me quickly and surprisingly low cost. Email she replied from was info@ggschmitt.com

The 660-277L-RP & 660-277R-RP are the mounting brackets on the ladders shown.

Thanks. Really appreciate the info. I will try to contact her now.
 
That # out of service. Will try the email.
 
I replaced my ladder through them a few years ago. They were OEM and were great.

The number above is what I have from 2018 but no longer in service.

Their website lists two locations with contact info. ggschmitt.com/contact

941.360.1967 Sarasota
843.970.3930 South Carolina

Both are valid
 
Thanks for the info. SC was not able to help. Spoke with Emily in Sarasota. She suggested i contact Sea Ray directly as their retail sales department is not available for several months, and they are limited to dealer orders only. So am trying SR corporate and a dealer in NJ. I'll post if I am able to find the item.
 
Local Marine Max dealer said part too old to order, referred me to SR cust svc. SR cust svc has the part, but said i must order through dealer. First dealer seems confused. Second dealer referred me to another location for ordering parts. Third dealer has yet to respond to vm or email. may just try SR CS again on Monday.
 
Finally spoke with a parts department. The ladder is available, for $450.00. Seems a little steep to me. Probably go with an aftermarket stainless ladder [about 150.00] and adapt the mounting bracket to somehow cover the holes from the original.
 
Thanks for all the info and research folks. I need a GG Schmitt L2T13100 does anyone have one? Or know where i can get one? Its from a Searay 210 select.

I agree, SR CS can't find two dealers that give me the same answer.
 
Darren, there are plenty in stock at Sea Ray. It should take any dealer about 1 minute to see that. Just tell them your model/year. BUT... it will most likely be less expensive buying from GG as Brad noted.
 
GG Schmitt is saying they are not selling any retail right now, at least that's what the recording says when you call
