I found the removable ladder could slide along the edge of the boat where it was deployed, especially if someone was using it while the boat was underway. I found it tended to rock around a little as someone used it. It also required a little care to make sure it was properly configured when it was deployed. With the fixed ladder, there is no question. I note I still have my removable ladder if anyone wants it. I'll say the quality is good.

I have given some thought to the over the gunwales mounting ladder. As I sail with a mate 50% of the time the ladder could remain stowed unless needed. I would deploy it when single handling. You mentioned it not being secure can you elaborate on that a little? ?
