This anti-twist mast ladder is designed for safe and stable access to the masthead for maintenance, repair, and inspection of sailboats. The ladder is made of heavy-duty webbing with solid aluminium steps and is constructed so that it does not twist or rotate under load.
The ladder is attached at the bottom using the two pre-fitted loops – ideally under the boom fitting – and then tensioned using a halyard. When the ladder is correctly tensioned with the boat's winch, each step automatically locks into place via a self-tensioning system. This provides a rigid and stable ladder that remains safe to work on, even when the user leans away from the mast.
The ladder is dimensioned for masts of approx. 16 metres, where the ladder length of 14.90 metres allows for comfortable work at the masthead. When the ladder is correctly tensioned, the user will have the masthead at approximately chest height from the top step.
