The Taylor Made StepSafe Dock Steps - Triple - 25-1/2" Tall - 300 lbs - White # TM85ZR is the largest that we currently carry in this style. I may have a few other options that will work for you, but they will be quite a bit different.
The first alternate will be a ladder, like the Jif Marine Telescoping Gunwale Hook Ladder - 4 Steps - 47" Tall - 400 lbs - Stainless Steel # JIF53FR. This would be long enough for you, but with it being a gunwale style connection, there will need to be a good lip for this to hook onto. The Jif Marine Sliding Under Platform Pontoon Boat Ladder # 315-FOG4, on the other hand, will need to be permanently installed but also slides away and keeps it out of the way when not in use.
The only other thing I can suggest will be the TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps - 6 Steps - Aluminum - 20" Wide - 325 lbs # TLA7806. These will meet your height needs and are made of aluminum, so they will be corrosion resistant. However, they are bulky and will need to be folded up when not in use.
