    You know I thought the same thing about that place Devin. Like great location and but there isn’t much space for a boat to maneuver once in the water. Or tie up. It’s still better than it used to be. And better than waiting to launch at south shore.

    **edit** if you got a 30’ deep draft boat, this launch isn’t for you. It’s maybe 3’ in the tie up areas. Power poles stop at a 90° so is shallow.

    You saw that old military boat? I think that isn’t staying there and that will be used for additional tie up space but I could be wrong. (If it were my place I’d move all the boats by the ice machine and make that open dock space, I understand why that isn’t happening though).

    They are building a second launch that’s what all that construction is. Owner said they left that flat bed truck almost blocking the launch. One thing I hate at all these launches is the gravel muddy parking lots. Probably less of an issue on a carpeted boat, but it makes it impossible to keep your non skid decks clean

    The owner seems like a nice guy. When I’ve brought kids and bought shrimp he hooked it up. Since they are catching them via wing nets, it doesn’t cost them like it does the marinas that have to buy them from a shrimper.

    I know one thing coming back into that place on a falling tide shows just how hard the current is ripping out of chef pass.

    Anyways, hope yall had a good one
