  • I bought a BowStep and installed it on my boat trailer about 6 months ago. Getting into and out of my boat was dangerous and there were times I almost fell or hurt my legs. I looked for a reasonably priced way to safety get into and out of the boat when I launched alone. The BowStep was what I picked and I am glad I did.

    Great piece of gear! Looks very sturdy. I use to be an instructor for Marine Corps open water safety boats and they had drop down platform in front that was very convenient to load onto. -Ambrose

      Funny most people don't think about stuff like that until they get older they just muscle through thinking they can do anything

    I have been watching you and Tammy for a long time. Just got a new bass boat and have been looking at steps and what do I find tonight but your video for bow steps. I was amazed!

    I need a BowStep for my pickup truck. Even with my long legs I need to climb into it! Looks like a great product Chris!

      I love it . I have a 2006 3/4 ton Leveled Dodge diesel, cause, as Tammy knows. I was a farmer. Entering is becoming increasingly difficult. And I am 5’2” prideful. Exiting is easy. Entering is something again. Open to all suggestions.😂😂😂😂😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤦‍♀️

    I purchased this item to mount on the starboard side of my trailer a month ago. Turns out the bracket was a very small measure... to small, for the dimensions of my trailer. It was definitely built well!! If I didn't think I would mess the flat mounting plate up, by drilling the bolt whole slightly larger. If I would have done so, I would be using the Bow Step to this day. It would be nice if the company would make a plate that will fit a 2021/22 Shore Lander trailer.

    Nice, Chris..as you age, you will want something to hold on to with both hands to balance you. For now, this is pretty cool.

      If I knew I would have treated this some way to keep it from rusting (or at least slow it down) but other than that I would buy it again. When are you going to make another fishing video haven't seen one in a while and you were one of the people I watched when I moved down here last year.

    Do you think if you rinsed the salt water off when you get home it would slow down the rust problem?

    I’m going to have to check that out! I assume it would work ok for a bass boat also. Price seems good compared to some other types I’ve priced out.

      It is adistable and you just have to make sure you pick one for starboard or port
