John and Mark, Thank you for your replies. I managed to sister two pieces of home depot grade wood to the ends that I mistakenly cut. The ladder fits like a glove and is rock solid. Over the winter, I'll remove the pieces and replace them with teak in addition to making them a little prettier. I think this is the end of my companionway ladder woes. I sailed her out the inlet this weekend trying to take advantage of the westerlies in 4-6 ft seas. Not the best of ideas. Quickly changed course and headed up the Great Egg Harbor River only to ground out the next day. Waited three hours for the water to come up but sure loved every minute of it. The ladder performed flawlessly,
Thanks again, Mike -----Original Message----- From: ChefYaz <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, Sep 4, 2010 1:56 pm Subject: Re: [IC27A] CompanionWay Ladder Mike, I'll be on my boat Monday, would you like me to make a pattern. Sorry for your woes. If I had a dollar for every time I did something like that, I'd have a bigger boat!

Does anyone know where I can find a companion way ladder for my 1984 inboard diesel C-27. I purchased one but it was too long, ended up cutting it (incorrectly) and made one big mess...sorry Mark. I will be able to mend it but I would like a solid one eventually. Does anyone know a good teak fabricator that works with Catalina 27's Thanks, Mike
