Melville, Portsmouth / Middletown line - Ray pics above. About 4 miles north of NPT bridge.

Unsure if all dock floats are in this time of year. Something seems to make me think one time they were not years ago

the one in Jamestown suck s for launching &, nice one at Fort adams in Newport
parking
Wickfords dock is out , allens harbor in NKNG isn,t bad
Goddard park probably has the ramps out .
Oakland beach in warwick, is good to go .
Gano st off 195 in providence is Ok ….. Corliss in Providence is steep some trailer hit at the beginning but the ramp will take a descent boat .

Thanks boys. I’m not launching anytime soon. This is for a trip later this year, staying in Jamestown. Ideally I’d like to launch from the island if an option. Winter sucks

There’s a “ramp” at ft wetherill but it only accommodates small rigs from what I’ve seen. Also one at Ft. Getty but not sure if you can use it if not camping there. But I’ve launched out of there on friends CC’s.

When are you going, Paul? I’ll be on the island for a week during the July new moon (18-25th)

Never mind, the wives just went down to Jamestown and weren’t impressed. Looks like we’re onto Pt Judith. Shorter ride to block so that works

Yes, the Great Island ramp is top notch. I used it many times with my boat and "he who cannot be named" boat.

You’ll probably have a shot at bones then, too.

Coxes can be a good bet if there aren't many green-eyed monsters (dogs) around.Good chance at makos hanging around too...

galilee launch is top notch, but can definitely get MOBBED in august on weekends... Arrive early, and haul out late.
