Will this work for older people to board a boat from the shoreline?

I don't think so. We have it for emergency but it does not sit very secure.

Yes his a very good ladder. But you still have to be physically capable of climbing the ladder. No matter your age.

Probably not, it hangs straight down. the hooks need to be straight to be safe. I don't think it would be a safe idea.

Maybe, but they would need pretty good arm strength and probably someone at the top to help them over the gunwale.

I would have to say no. This ladder is going to require a lot of coordination and upper body strength to hoist oneself up and over the side of the boat. My dad is 69 years old and I would not expect him to board the boat using this ladder (unless he fell overboard)...I would just go pick him up at the dock.

It's all a matter of balance; with two people should work. Also would work best with a narrow kayak.

Maybe, it works well on a bed with teenagers but for an elderly person I'm just not sure it would work well.

We have had no problem with that because of the width. I paddled my 75 year-old mother on it!

I believe it would. Make sure to the tighten the nuts that much more on boat application!

It might work, but the descriptions says it is for canoes up to 90 pounds so use caution.

NO. You need a model that will change with motion. This is a stationary unit. A boat will be continually moving and this one will not track the movement. I am using this in a motorhome and it can not be used going down the road, but when I am parked it works great.

I'm sure that will work just as well. It is a very good product. I bought it for my 86 yr old aunt and it is been great for her.i definetly reccommend this item.

I believe that would be fine. The instructions show it attached to a boat. There are mounting holes.

As long as its the same number of megahertz (MHz) as the boat, it should work, even a remote for a car would work, again obviously if it has the same number of MHz's, you should be fine.

Sure, as long as the boat has a motor mount and you can reach the handle guide

Yes! This will work nicely on a boat. Best as I can tell, it works by detecting the electrostatic discharge of the nearby lightning strike, and when strong enough, it alerts by beeping. For example, when I first put the batteries in, I hit the UNLOCK button on my car, and THAT was strong and close enough the make the detector beep as well.I've also noticed it does not work as well indoors. So, Outdoors, (I used our primarily on the Soccer Fields) as an early warning device, it was a great way to help keep us "Ahead of the storms".

It sure would, without a problem. I use my Life Board on my rear porch, with similar decking.

I have a 14 ft v bottom with a 10 horse out board. It works very well and is good on the battery. It is easy to put up and down. I'M 70.

It could, I have it overhead on a boat and works great, a stationary wall would probably be OK.

Yes. I use it for my 12 foot without a problem. Just center it under the canoe and push or pull it.

The Quest should work fine. It'll be very large but shouldn't be a problem for him. The board is extremely sturdy and won't get dinged up from regular use. I got the board for my 13yr. old daughter, she's tiny (84lbs), and has no problems with it. My 11yr old son also uses the board and loves it. I ride it and it's very smooth and maneuverable. To give the board a little more maneuverability I would suggest loosening the trucks a bit, they come from the factory very tight. I researched longboards extensively before Christmas and found that the Quest was one of the top five cruisers available. I understand why after making the purchase. I also saved big bucks compared to the other boards. This isn't really a beginner board per se. It's great for beginners but it's also a great long term board. If I can be of further assistance just let me know.
