I tied a spectra line to the tramp attachment point at the rear x bar. then i measured out two steps one lower than the other tied them in and now have a "ladder" to step up with. I keep the rope in a small tramp bag tied off on the rear
Absolute genious! Can't tell you how many times I wished I had something like this, just never thought of a "ladder." I will definitely be adding that to my boat. Granted, a Hobie 16 is one of the easier boats to get back on, but I'm not getting any younger, and could stand to put fewer trap hook dings in my hulls.
I would put it at the front crossbar, though.
