i cant find a ladder thats rated for more than 250 pounds... would this hold someone weighing 300 pounds

I think the problem would be that the ladder is not really secured only the hooks are holding over the gunwale. I think the ladder can support the weight, it's a question of it being stable at the weight. Hope that helps a little

This ladder is well built, but difficult to get up and down unless it fits perfect to the angle of the side of the boat. The best fit would be a boat with stright down sides. It would be OK for emergency use.

we use this ladder on our pontoon all the time. my husband weighs about 255 lb, and the ladder is fully capable of holding him up. hope this helped you. -Carrie Hall

yes, it will work very well. i got a 24foot ladder. i live on 3rd floor. it is very heavy duty. it would hold a lot of weight.

I dont remember what it was rated to hold, but I weigh about 250, and while it feels as if it carries my weight adequately, it is rather wobbly. This ladder is much, much better than what came with our above ground pool, but the way in which it clicks together rather than the pieces being bolted together gives it a bit of wobble. I would assume that it would be safe up to 300 pounds, however.

The ladder is well made, but of fairly light material. I'm a good sized guy at 250 and it holds up well but I'm not sure you would want to put a lot of traffic on it. Good luck.

We bought the riser for my mother in law and it is rated to hold 250 lbs. If it were me, I would not chance it. I would find a little stronger one. Sorry.

I believe the limit is 250 lbs but they have another style that says 300lbs.

I am sure the manufacturer has the exact answer. I have had the ladder up over a year. I weigh over 220 and have carried up numerous items that were very heavy. I do not feel I personally can over load this ladders capacity. I am very pleased with this ladder!

250 pounds but we think that is pushing the limit unless you have exactly the right angle on the ladder from floor to bed

Nope, I don't think it would be sturdy for 300lbs. The Chair feels light, you could even push it with a finger :-). Hope this helps

I believe they set a 300lbs limit but as we never used it I can tel you that from the look of it and it's weight it seems too flimsy for holding that weight

Don't know, but I weigh about 200 lbs and there is no doubt to me that could easily support 250. BUT it is very narrow, and anyone over 200 may want to look elsewhere for that reason. PS the width is my only real complaint.

The machine I purchased said it could hold 350 pounds. I would not rec anything over 300.

I hung from mine, and I am 250 lbs. You just need to use good anchors. I screwed into the studs.

I am 180lb and its holding ok.. I doubt if its good for 250, legs looks not that much solid..

We mounted the pontoon ladder to a pier for our grandchildren to be able to enter the water and not have to climb over rip rap on the bulkhead. The ladder itself looks like it actually wouldn't be strong enough for someone weighing over 250lbs. even attached to a stationary pier.

Provided there are no accessories in your way there shouldn't be an issue. This is rated for 300 Lbs evenly distributed.
