Product Highlights & Selection
Boarding Ladders & Accessories: Choose a ladder based on mount style, step geometry, and stowage. Popular options include fixed, removable, and telescoping designs that integrate with transoms, docks, or swim platforms. - Garelick ladders — including EEz-In telescoping and removable fisherman’s models — balance compact stowage with secure footing.
- Garelick ladder parts — transom gudgeons, shims, spacers, and mounts support retrofits and repairs.
Seating Systems: From helm to deck, Garelick boat seats and the classic “EEz-In” chairs focus on posture support, shock mitigation, and durable upholstery. Pair with compatible pedestals and slides for precise helm ergonomics. - Pedestals & Slides — adjust height and fore-aft travel; confirm bolt patterns and base diameter.
- Hardware & Swivels — corrosion-resistant bearings for smooth rotation under load.
Table Hardware & Modular Posts: Garelick table hardware transforms salon and cockpit spaces with removable posts, low-profile bases, and quick-lock mechanisms, enabling fast changeovers between dining and open deck. Boat Hooks: A Garelick boat hook aids docking, line handling, and object retrieval. Look for telescoping shafts, ribbed grips, and reinforced heads to reduce flex and improve control.
Buying Tips: Fit, Materials & Maintenance
- Fit & Load — confirm surface thickness, backing plate access, and rated capacity for crew and gear.
- Materials — stainless steel for maximum corrosion resistance; anodized aluminum for lighter weight and value.
- Care — rinse with fresh water after salt exposure; inspect fasteners and replace worn bushings or mounts seasonally.
