Ouch!
Sorry. Never thought to mention that. But FWIW, they will also permit you to slide out of your rig at the platform and haul it up for you, then haul you aboard.

Meh.......I think the first time the crewman handling the divers was a new kid. He just sat there and stared at the divers coming out and bouncing on the platform. My family looked at me weird at mass as I didn't use a kneeler that Sunday

Very happy with JDC now. But if SC had a ladder I would use them again in a minute. Getting AOW next spring.

I am not real fond of that platform but in certain marine conditions it is easy to use: such as when you are diving in 3-4 foot waves. Just wait for it to bob under water and swim onto it. When the marine conditions are calm, that thing can be a bear.
