I had a single step one for the kayak which worked if you kept your leg bent and up towards your bum before starting the regain, ie push yourself up and across rather than trying to get out vertically.

With the extra height of SIB tubes pretty sure that would not work , just been in the garage and found a suitable piece of alloy box section that i think I will make into a two stepper.
I would also plan to use the anti cav plate on the outboard, as i have on previous hard and soft boats.

But first I need the boat and then do some testing in the dry suit.

regards Clive
