PLUG IT IS ON THE LEFT WHEN YOU ARE RETURNING TO LAND, THERE IS A SMALL FISHING DOCK ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE RAMP, RAMP IS CONCRETE. MOST TIMES THERE IS A BOAT TRAILER PARKED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AT THE RAMP. IT IS ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE ROAD.

Update-

Tried that ramp yesterday on the way in. It's a short steep one...I was going to pop the e-brake and hop in the boa to crank her up, but the jeep started sliding backwards when I took my foot off the brake. (Even adjusted the ebrake cable the day before.) My buddy didn't know what to do, so I just backed the boat in and out a couple times to wash it off.

Thanks for the suggestion though. I'm sure the freshwater helps.
