Product Details
- Embarkation ladders are foldable ladders that hang from the main or exposed deck along the hull side.
- They enable people to embark and disembark to and from the vessel.
- These ladders are essential during emergency scenarios or when transferring between vessels, such as rescue boats or survival crafts.
- Their design adheres to strict regulations outlined by the SOLAS (Safety of Lives at Sea) framework.
- Embarkation ladders follow simple rope ladder design principles but with modifications for strength and safety.
- They are equipped with multiple steps and can be hung from any deck, especially the main or exposed deck.
- The configuration, manufacture, and disposition of these ladders are carefully regulated.
- Unlike regular ladders, embarkation ladders are designed for swift deployment during emergencies.
- While both serve similar purposes, embarkation ladders differ from pilot ladders.
- Pilot ladders are primarily used by crew members, service personnel, or pilots during normal situations.
- Crew members use pilot ladders for inspections, fixing structural issues, and embarking/disembarking from other vessels.
- In terms of design, pilot and embarkation ladders are similar, but pilot ladders have spreaders for added strength and stability.
