Keyport ramp
 
Anyone know if the keyport ramp is open yet. I may try and launch the shrimp this weekend. Wondering where to launch from.

The ramp is open but the floating docks are not in. It's a two man job to launch with out the floaters but can be done as long as it's not low tide.

People use the ramp year round.

I was down in Keyport this past weekend scoping things out. Lot's of stuff still in the water in the harbor. Saw several sections of dock with railing on it so be careful.

Yea I stopped by sat too it seems to still be a mess...I would say if I was goin back this year I would volunteered to help clean up the place , but not sure I'm putting boat in anywhere this year might take the season off and just keep making cosmetic repairs and such , so next season she is tip top perfect

Do you guys think zubacks is a better option. I don't know the area and haven't used either ramp. Keep in mind I am new to this, so the easier the better

Was down at the keyport ramp yesterday....Because of the moon phase the tide was very low. I doubt that ramp will be useable at low tide since there are no floating docks in yet. Not sure how you would be able to launch the boat and retrieve the person in the tow vehicle from land. High tide might be a different story since the pit for the ramp should have more water in it.
