I had a 14' Zodiac years ago. I rigged up a two rung rope ladder using aluminum conduit for the rungs. The top rung was a few inches below the top of the tube, the lower one about 18" to 24" below the surface. I would pull my knees up and put my feet on the lower rung. While holding the upper rung with my bent knees resting against the tube I would straighten my legs and up and over I went into the boat. It was fairly easy even with full gear on.
