It sounds like the 4-6 feet is length not draft. Draft is onlt 27 inches... or am I missing something?
33rd street is still open isn't it?

: 4 or 5' is going to be tough. I don't know
: right off hand where you could do that
: around Marathon - let alone on the ocean
: side or harbor. My first inclination would
: be to have it lifted into the water.If
: you're going to be oceanside (harbor side),
: then call Marathon Boatyard. That will put
: you right in the harbor, across from
: Sister's creek. You could also contact Chris
: who runs the Smorgasboat in the harbor and
: ask him if he's aware of any ramp that deep.
: I'm not. He's at
: http://www.smorgasboat.com/ .
: Have a good trip.

: Hi all. We're heading to Marathon and
: bringing
: our small sailboat along. The boat draws
: 27" but I need about 4 or 5 feet at a
: ramp to launch from the trailer. Can anyone
: recommend a ramp (ocean side) near Sister's
: Creek? Should I even try launching from the
: trailer or should I have a marina lift it
: from the trailer to the water (and back to
: the trailer after a week) ... and if so, can
: you recommend a marina. Thanks!
