What’d does everyone use? Post a picture if you have one.
James,
We don’t have one yet on our BCC, but talking to John Stone, this is what he made that I think will be a good fit for us (and I expect also for an FC).

This is what we use on BCC Calypso. It’s a 4 step telescoping ladder purchased on Amazon - a knockoff of the Windline design. The mounts were modified per Roger Olsen’s design.

Hi Tom and the Group
I wish I knew you were looking for a boarding ladder. I have installed one on my boat and two other BCC's for under $300. The ladder is telescopic with for steps or rungs. It collapses to about 18" long and is about 4 feet long when extended. The only modification is the bracket that is made for under deck mounting has to be cut, bent and welded. When installed in the brackets it can be hinged up to connect to the underside of the lifeline. If anyone is really interested I can ask Lokke to take a photo of his and post it on this site. I would ask Mike to do the same but there is a snowballs chance ......that he would have a digital camera..... There is a challenge for you Mike Cochrane!!!!!!!!
