Haven't been out that way for about a month, but noticed it is almost about 8 feet low. I've launched there when it was about 5 feet low with no problem.

The ramp is ok for smaller boats. 30 + ft. you might have a problem. Be careful around the courtesy docks. There is some steel that has killed a few lower units.

I fished with JD Lyle last week, he had no problem unloading and loading a 28' boat.
Make sure you leave your headlights on.

The ramp is good, but as someone mentioned be careful around the dock closest to the shore on your left hand side as you are facing the water. There is a sumberged stump or something about a foot below the water at the far corner. Simply dock in one of the slips down the way and you'll be fine. Good luck!
