No, We just went a lot last year. I'm kinda spent on the mv thing. $8 beer, $14 mixers. Everything is a fuchin and my butt is just starting to recover from last season. Well see though...... |
I'm not familiar with the area, do you know the name of the street for the public ramp down the road?
Are you allowed to park over night? How's the parking? Thanks |
Look at city of newbedford website. They just rebuilt one. Not so sure your car would be 100% secure overnight. There's also a ramp on the other side of the harbor in fairhaven next to the seaport inn. That's a town ramp also.
Both are relatively cheap launch fees. Fairhaven ramp can get tight with ****y parking especially for longer rigs. Another option would be Taylor point marina out of bourne. It's also town owned but will make your trip considerably longer if you launch there (+/- 30 mins) the facility is nice and your rig will be safe. From there you'd follow hog island channel which is always rough, go thru woods hole which is very confusing on your first pass thru because the channel splits with a ledge middle ground. Take the preferred channel thru there, or better yet just follow another boat thru there! It's a zoo on the weekends |

Other option I had is leaving out of Westport point. The trip is about 10/15 minutes longer but over all time is about 30/40 minutes at a light cruise 55 or so. Start pushing it and get there a bit faster.

If you had gone racing you can drink your own beer in the pits. Just sayin
I'm gonna get my azz to at least two races this year. Hopefully more if $ allows. ...... After all, I'm ****ing loaded!!! I've got hundreds of dollars in my bank account. Better lock your cooler in the pits n****! ;) |

Ha. This is true although I think the costs of racing makes mv trips look like chump change.

Any dates work better for more then less? Trying to gauge best time to go.
Thanks |
I go over 6-8 times a season,for the last 6 years.Never had a problem with noise cops.Twin 525's,no mufflers.But as some have said,economy is getting better for them,and they may start to "pick" on boats they don't want there.
Just an FYI ,all the slips against the bulkhead are free,and first come first serve,before Memorial day,and after Labor Day. We always do an early run and grab a slip. If you go over peak season, leave EARLY! If the weathers good,the town moorings fill up fast. I'll keep an eye on the thread,and shot over. Jeff |
