The swim ladder is held in place by four bolts that go into the underside of the swim platform. Since I don't have easy access to a trailer or work area for installing my wake wedge, I was trying to figure out the torque spec and had a draft posting asking about it before I finally managed to buy the e-book version of the service manual.

The swim ladder on the 242x E-Series is held up by 4 M8 x 35mm bolts and sealed with ThreeBond 1344N, tightened to 17nm. This is a specific torque spec for these bolts and is different than the generic torque spec for M8 bolts on the boat.
