1. A ladder attachment configured to attach to a perimeter region of a water vessel, the ladder attachment comprising:
a) lock member fixedly attached to the water vessel comprising a lateral component extending at least in part in a lateral direction, b) a base member with at least one laterally extending portion configured to receive and be slideably but not rotatably attached to the lock member, the base member further having an attachment region operatively configured to couple to a ladder assembly, c) a rotation mount rotatably and not slideably attached to the attachment region of the base member, the rotation mount having an operational orientation and stored orientation with respect to the base member, d) the ladder attachment having a surface defining a lock port, the lock port being in substantial alignment with a channel portion of the base member when the rotation mount is in the stored orientation and configured to maintain the rotation mount in the stored orientation, e) the ladder assembly having a first ladder section fixedly and rigidly attached to the rotation mount, a second ladder section is telescopically attached to the first ladder extension to have an extended orientation and a retracted orientation and where the ladder assembly is substantially horizontal when the rotation mount is in the stored orientation, and f) the ladder assembly comprises a pivot stop operably configured to prohibit the rotation of the rotation mount relative to the base member short of a fully vertical position when the rotation mount is in the operational orientation. |
