Default Ocean City Public Ramp

Looks as if they have redone the ramps ( Main Ramp prior to entering Ocean City from Route 50). There is now floating docks over the old fixed dock.

What is the largest boat ( length wise ) that can be launched there ? DNR & Coast Guard local there couldnt answer any questions regarding this or or if the underwater concrete ramp extended to the end of the new floating docks or past them. All they indicated is that they had seen some large boats launched there in the past.

Any idea's ? Would be nice to trailer down for a few days and launch 45 Feet of Sonic there and go for some rides in the Atlantic.

Some rather large race boats have used that ramp with no problems.

If they had fixed docks last year, that was old. This year they have floating docks. Saw them in June.

Since the redo, I can't answer your question. But in the past, there have been quite a few large boats launched and retrieved there. High tide is definitely easier. DO NOT drop the trailer of the end of the ramp, it is a ***** to get it back over the end

Too funny. We have a Rt. 50 near Ocean City, NJ. No wonder I couldn't find it.
