A gunwale sliding section is integrated into a stern portion of a gunwale of a marine vessel. The gunwale sliding section is slideably positioned. The longitudinal motion of the gunwale sliding section is parallel to the gunwale, wherein a sternward motion provides an open configuration and bow-ward motion provides a closed configuration. A rail and slide assembly enables the sliding motion. The stern arrangement of the gunwale sliding section enables a wider span across the opening, thus enhancing embarking and disembarking of the marine vessel. The gunwale sliding section can be manually operated or employ automated mechanisms, such as a hydraulic system, a pneumatic system, a motor driven system, and the like.
