  • The ramp is usable at most tides, but a 10.0′ or higher tide is best.
  • At lowest tides (under 4.0′), launching may not be possible depending on boat size.
  • Use the right side (“lookers right”) at low tide — the concrete ends on the left side and there is a drop-off.
  • Between 4.0′ and 10.0′, the ramp is quite flat, and vehicles may need to get their tires wet.
