Need a ramp for a quick run...
Only ramp I ever use is the fort, which apparently is still out of commission. I need somewhere to splash the boat for a quick run, fresh or salt doesnt matter, just needs to be close and somewhere that's easy to run with minimal navigation hazards. I'm in North Crawdordville, boat is a 17 flats boat. Any help would be much appreciated.

Shields Marina in St. Marks or the Newport Ramp on the upper St. Marks would work. Some no wake zones but fairly easy runs for a quick test.

Anybody can use shields? I thought it was a member deal? Do you know the cost?silverking wrote:Shields Marina in St. Marks or the Newport Ramp on the upper St. Marks would work. Some no wake zones but fairly easy runs for a quick test.

$10 or less ramp fee. Open to the public.

Newport ramp before you make the turn to the lighthouse and run north. 100' until you can run vs a decent area of no wake. Don't go too far up the river if the tide is low.
