DIY hand rail for boarding ladder

[pcatterall]

Our boarding ladder is just a ply board on top of a short conventional ladder. I am considering adding a hand rail, basically two upright tubes with a rope line between them and secured at the top and foot.
I thought I had seen little brackets which screw to the ladder side and hold the upright tubes. I can no longer locate them. Any ideas where I can obtain them please?

Great try! Thanks! Its something to go onto the ladder side that I wanted. I have seen them in the flesh but cant locate where to buy them or dream up a description to google with!

IMHO it is hand rail above the deck level that would make boarding easier not next to the side rails of the ladder. More difficult of course. ol'will
