Ramp at Big Bear

**killum** · 03-10-2017, 01:44 PM

No wonder me and mama had so much trouble on that ramp last year! Would rather put in at the back of the Big Bear resort dock than try that again. In fact we did pull out from the resort mud puddle...

what wrong with our ramp at Jonathan. Unless you are talking about the ramp at Harry Waterfield park.

The ramp on the big Jonathan side is an absolute joke. Broken concrete, holes and ridges in the pad underneath the water is ridiculous. At 354 to 356, you absolutely can not launch a boat on this ramp. I almost ruined a 300.00 prop at this ramp a few weeks ago.

I agree with chaunc about a wave break wall for the ramp in little Jonathan. In high south winds is almost impossible to load a boat by yourself. In retrospect, if the ramp on big Jonathan was suitable, you can very safely launch and load a boat with high south winds.

It's a simple enough fix on the JC Ramps
Instead of buying $2000-5000.00 of electronics and other equipment then invest a little money back into the local economy by paying a ramp fee occasionally on high wind days at the local marinas. I agree the Harry Lee Ramp is in rough condition but it's been that way as long as I can remember so instead of addressing a issue that has been around for decades the more appropriate thing to ask for would be larger tiered parking lots on both sides to accommodate the overflow that continually gets worse.

Ding!Ding! Ding!

I just dropped several $$ for yearly launch and use fees at 2 locals marinas.Having my Bay Pro sideways on the rocks at the the JC public ramp then breaking a prop off my RipTide when the wind blew me into the courtesy dock made the decision easy for me. Cheaper too!
