your concerns are valid imho, do as Ozzie suggests, he knows, he has a long history of dealing with grievences, he is the one who petitioned King George I believe.

HH, we got one here in town we'll trade you. it is too steep. boat unloads like a dream, but when you pull up the top breaks over hard to level ground and your trailer frame drags the ground. i wish they would get input from people that actually use ramps.

Yeah, that's what I don't get...boat ramps ain't freakin' ROCKET SCIENCE...it ain't like it's emerging technology...the state put in new tournament ramps at Dreher Island several years back...two big, wide ones...but on completely wrong angle and NOBODY used 'em and everybody complained...they finally tore 'em up and redid 'em and now they're GREAT...but couldn't SOMEBODY check the angle on a successful ramp before screwin' up a new one

In Miami we had a ol'CC seaplane ramp,..( coconut grove )..w/a very slight pitch that would put all 4 wheels in the slime at low tide. A weekend didn't go by that someones car/trucks ended up in the drink. Folks complained and the city finally closed it to the public.

Up here I attended the meetings and asked they copy the pitch of the good ramp. Lotza good that did !!! AARRGGHHH.

Years back Portsmouth City Park tore out their old ramps and put in nice new ramps and two nice long piers. Like the saying goes build the ramps and the boaters will come. So on opening day people showed up but found themself backing way down into the water just to get their boats to float. Well a week or so latter the city tore out the new ramps and fixed the problem.

Hey Hammerhead...here's a precedent by another municipality to take to whoever incorrectly built your faulty ramps...research this and take it to 'em...
