I bought my boat from a walleye pro and he told he always gets a boarding ladder on every boat he gets just in case. I know about the trick with using the trim tilt to help get you out of the water. Its amazing how much more you weigh with all your clothes on and rain gear. Ive went swimming on hot days with my life jacket on so I could float around and with just a slight breese my boat drifted away from me rather quickly. That also drives me crazy when people operate their boat without lights on, they must the same people I see drive their car without lights on after dusk, in both cases I say to myself where a cop when you need them . For me I want my lights on so people don't run into me.
