Cape Questions
 
A couple of cape based questions;

Going up Friday with on of our small research boats (16') to do some work in the Pleasnt Bay/Chatham area; My colleague is the principal investigator of this work, I'm just handling the boat end of it/logistical support etc.. He has a boat ramp picked out on pleasant bay; I was just looking for a couple of other options incase we get there and find it no good; suggestions?

2. Coming from RI, he lives in Worcester, Looking for a park and ride somehere convieniet to leave a car or two to make travel easier.. any thoughts? will be trailering, so looking for something easy on/easy off....

Thanks Guys!

Bryan, I assume the ramp he has picked out is at Ryder's Cove in Chatham. That's the only decent one I know of in that area. The other's are sandy bottom town landing type places.

If your looking for a convenient park and ride, the one we often use is Fish Rd in Tiverton.

Ed, thanks, was looking for one farther along so we could split there and he could go west to Worcester and I could go SW to So.Co... was thinking somewhere near the bridge?

I think there might be a park and ride by the sagamore.

Not sure, check mapquest!

There is a big commuter lot across from the gas station behind MacDaddy's and the Highway department facilty at the Sagamore rotary that you can park at. Just follow the sign. When I meet up with my buddy a lot of times we'll leave one vehcle there for the weekend. Never had a problem.

Another piece of advice, be careful out on the boat. even though you're in Pleasant Bay, you don't want to fall out of the boat and end up a human iceberg.

......And sneek a rod on. You never know, but just maybe that elusive freek school of 50 pounders will swim under the boat...............

Thanks for the info redlite...
I grew up fishing winters in new england, and run boats for a living so I'm well versed in saftey etc... thanks for the concern though, and the info, I thought i remembered a lot there, but wasnt sure...

Try East Orleans, maybe
 
Bryan-

The Ryder's Cove boat launch is the best, but if that fails, we used to use a ramp at the head of Pleasant Bay in East Orleans, near the Nauset Marine buildings on the road to Nauset beach.
