Adding a swim step - ladder to platform - need advice, ideas

[bdavis]

I just added a ladder to my swim platform on a 2017 Moomba Mojo
I first removed the original black platform Gatorstep.
That was a pain: pry bar, left a ton of adhesive. I used several coats of Goo Gone Citrus adhesive removal, power washer, and metal scraper.
I ordered new Gatorstep direct - Black Friday 15% off
I installed this ladder using 2" x 5/16" stainless steel elevator bolts, washer an nut Qty (4) (hardware from Bolt Depot
