just curious what launch fees are in various locations.....
today for example at Bay Springs Lake Mississippi.....it's 3.00 per boat.
Trace Lake -$7.00
-
The lakes around Phoenix are 10.00. 7.00 per vehicle and 3.00 more per watercraft. I went to big lake on Colorado river and it was 25.00
-
Horizonjet what lake do you usually go to?
Life is uncertain. Don't sip.
-
Pleasant just because I can hitch up, gas up and be on the water in 30 min. Canyon is my favorite though. Are you around here?
-
Yeah, I work up in Prescott. Usually come down to pleasant because it's closer. I still have to go check out Bartlett, heard its nice.
Life is uncertain. Don't sip.
-
Last I heard Bartlett was so low the ramps were out of the water and had a lot of junk floating in the water. Let me know next time you go to pleasant
-
Probably next weekend. I'll let you know though. Pleasant seemed pretty low last time I was there too.

Ya its that time of the year

I'm in northern middle Tennessee and never heard of a launch fee. We do have a place that you can pay $50.00 for the year but its private property owned by the slip owners, but theres a ton of places to put in at. I boat on the Cumberland river and water levels are always fine even if we have a dry spell so theres always plenty of options at no cost.
-
10 bucks a day at McIntyre near Blythe, 25 at the Riv, free on the other side of the river with a dirt ramp.
-
$6.00 day up in Crescent City harbor - Here: Requa $10.00 day free with tribal, Old Klamath townsite free except during commercial salmon season, Klamath Glenn free paid for by game and fish.
Humboldt bay: Eureka free, Samoa free, and King Salmon free.
-
Man, some of u guys have it pretty cheap. Launch fees at lake Elsinore are $25. :screwy:
-
Wow that's super expensive. I almost can't stand paying the ten it is here.

Big River is $25.00 per day
-
Ouch! $25 is a bite! What do you get for that? Secure parking? Floating comfort stations like at Trinity Lake? Dock space? An invasive species inspection?
-
Fishers landing in Yuma is free!

25$ per boat per day at willow valley
-
:o MOTHER OF JAYSUS :o there's some high fees to launch a boat out there.....
I don't get 25.00 ducats ANYWHERE.....
3.00 bucks at the primary lake I go to and a fifty buck "gold" membership get's you a year.
even the $7.00 at what I call the local "splash lake" (that's 15 minutes from my house) is kinda high in my opinion.... but the Park Rangers there will wave it when I come in after 4pm or so.....
-
try these ones;
$40.00 @ Chestermere Lake per/day
(not a lake, just a bloated weed infested part of an irrigation canal)
that the locals want to keep to themselves / they can have it :thumbdown:
Free @ Ghost Reservoir (part of the Bow River in Alberta)
better launch and docks, "PLUS" a shed full of life jackets
so no one boats without one. :thumbup:
-
its 25$ at willow cause its a private marina. they want to keep the weekenders from launching there and clogging up the boat ramp for the local home owners who pay dues to use the ramp. so it actually works out nicely.
-
California = fees,fees, and more fees :banghead:
I understand the private launch fees ...so home owners have there launch ramp anytime they want !!! I would make it $50 so LESS outsiders would launch :thumbup:
-
ya 4th of july weekend there was over an hour wait for the launch ramp.
-
At least Elsinore doesn't check for those pesky little mussel's....that way if you do wash out your engine compartment and it doesn't dry completely, you can still go enjoy a day on the lake without getting turned away! (Perris and Silverwood) but that's a whole different topic. :banghead: :beer:

All you get is a nifty little paper to put on your dash...lol!
-
i go to lake success most of the time and it is 4 bucks a day or 30 for a year pass that will get you into most of the middle valley / central ca lakes but that is way up there.. lol :banghead:
-
Castaic $24 pretty strict on the mussel inspection
-
$199/mo covers my indoor dry stack and unlimited launches with the forklift. Courtesy slips for going back home across the street from the marina to make lunch.

OUCH! I really dig the cross the street to make lunch part but wow! $199 mo.... My boat didn't cost that much! LOL
I'd hate to run into that situation without having a choice (which I'm sure you did) otherwise.
Reminds me of many years ago when I first got some money in my pocket and I went down to the Chevy dealer to make an offer on that shiny blue new Corvette Stingray I'd been eyeballin since it came off the truck - I'd done the math over and over and I KNEW that I could afford it. I made a sweet deal with the dealer, smiles all around until it was time for me to leave. Well you'll have to switch your insurance over to the new 'vette, no problem I think.... Long story short, I didn't drive off in my shiney blue Stingray - still in my 20's my insurance man laughed when I told him I got a new 'vette, then he said NOPE, we don't insure those! Calls around town mostly got hung up on, finally found one agent that would write the coverage - ALMOST DOUBLE the car payment. Crap, says I...I could buy 2 spares to replace this one if anything ever happened, I just couldn't stomach that the insurance company wanted twice as much as the Chevy dealer did. Took me another 20 years.... :-(

Oh, forgot to say...that's not a bad price, I paid that 30 yrs ago in Florida.
-
Really not a bad way to go, I like the boat staying indoors and always being full of gas and ready. 93 octane ethanol free at the marina for 4.30/gal. Waterfront condo in the same Cove as the marina with a boat slip just sold for 120k, very tempted but I really miss having a garage.
-
Wow, $120k won't buy you a rusted trailer on .1 acre up here! Plus 93 octane is over $4.50 gallon at the gas station for cars. And here I thought up here with all the poor folks was the cheap part of California!
-
That condo sounds good even to me! However I imagine the job opportunities for wilderness trackers is rather slim down there. :-)
-
that 199.00 deal sounds pretty good.....
very convenient no doubt
