duxbury ramps

[niko]

where are the ramps in duxbury? how's access at low water?

Launch at Plymouth, access during all stages of the tide.

Duxbury has very limited parking. They make you remove your trailer and place it at the back of the lot. There's probably only room enough for a dozen trailers at best and yours may be too long. Real PIA and I think that's the way they like it.
Use Plymouth or Green Harbor.

I think you're really better off splashing in Plymouth. Quick skip over to Duxbury with lots of fishy water in between.

I'd make the run along duxbury beach from green harbor vs. Plymouth. The ramp at plymouth is great, but the distance between the ramp and the dock, makes for long slow process of putting and taking out.

I thought the new floating dock made it much easier in plymouth. It's the chuckleheads that dont know how to launch and retreive their own boats that make it a long process.

smac, I agree it's better than it was (no dock), but if you're solo it's a time consuming PIA for you and those waiting on you, to launch your boat, run it over to the dock, tie up, walk back up the gangway, then back down the ramp to your truck. YUCK. And when you've been out all day and just want to load an go, that process seems endless.

Still can't understand why they put that dock over there. Normal thinking would put the floating dock along side the ramp on both sides. Useless waste of money IMO. They took all that time to decide to do that.
