Here's the story. By the time we get to the ramp I can see we don't have enough water so I call my buddy and resident expert on this kind of thing and ask him if there is another ramp in the area or if I should just wait on water. He tells me to just wait it out so we go to lunch, have a few beers by the beach and return to the ramp a few hours later. Things are better but it's coming in fast so we wait another 30 minutes there and then slid the boat safely into paradise.
There was no mud involved or hurling of trailers off the end of ramps, at least not on this day.
I'm headed back to this ramp next Wednesday so to avoid further torment I think I will check the tide table in advance.

Have a great time down there, I was in Miami a couple of weeks ago, unfortunately no boating was on the schedule!
