The Wooden Handle Stainless Step combines marine-grade strength with the timeless appeal of teak wood. Constructed entirely from AISI 316 stainless steel, it delivers exceptional durability and saltwater corrosion resistance, making it suitable for both freshwater and seawater use. The integrated teak wooden tread not only enhances the aesthetic with its warm, classic look, but also provides a non-slip surface for safer boarding even when wet. Measuring 270×130×25 mm, this step is compact yet ample enough to accommodate a sturdy foothold, whether you’re climbing aboard from the water or descending into an engine bay.
Designed for versatility, the step can be mounted in various configurations. Install a single step on a transom or side of a hull to assist with boarding, or use multiple steps spaced vertically to create a custom ladder on sailboat masts or cabin walls. Its universal design and pre-drilled mounting holes ensure that it fits most boat layouts and can be securely bolted on with minimal effort. Boaters appreciate that the teak step’s natural oils make it resistant to rot and provide grip underfoot, improving safety for crew and passengers.
This stainless-steel/teak step is also valued for its multi-purpose functionality. It serves as a convenient handhold or footstep when working around the boat – for example, aiding entry and exit on inflatable dinghies, or acting as a mast step on sailing yachts for easier mast climbing. The polished finish of the stainless frame means it will complement other deck hardware and resist rust over many seasons. Maintenance is straightforward: rinse with fresh water after use and occasionally apply teak oil to maintain the wood’s rich appearance. With its robust construction and smart design, this step is a long-term upgrade that adds both practicality and a touch of luxury to any boat.
