I like the idea of a little extra lift action perhaps a sling step like

combined with a 5:1 pully system. You could rig it off the front of teh mast and when not being use pull the system tight along the mast. You might have to install a separate mast hound on the front of the mast to hook it to.[/quote]
That looks like the ticket, that type lift could be lowered deep enough into the water that anyone could get their foot on it, then pulling it up like an elevator combined with crawling in across the front beam should work. And it's easy to stow. If you don't want to attach an additional mast hound you could run a 1x19 shroud type wire up along the mast to the existing hound down to a point where your ladder blocks would attach.[/quote]
