Randy, most everyone rafts up in the middle of the river right off the Base. Its a great show, especially watching it by water.

as far as where to launch ... theres a good ramp at Goodby's creek directly across the river from the base. I assume it will be PACKED and you may have a parking issue if you dont get there early.

if your looking at a map its located on San Jose Blvd. ( SR13 ) going north JUST before Baymeadows rd. on the right.

what day is everyone going?

I was thinking about putting in the water somewhere south and running up the river to NAS JAX. Any ideas?

I am coming up from the south near Ocala....just trying to put a plan together......

i know the jpbc is planning a raft up, there is a meeting in a week or two, details can be posted after

well it depends how far south you want to be... A good option is the green cove springs ramp on us17 just north of sr16 where it crosses the river. Good ramp and good parking. That would be a nice short cruise up to the base.

There will be a couple of us coming out of blackcreek to go when time gets closer we can all meet at the mouth of blackcreek and run to nas together,Im game if anyone wants to.

Anyone have links to these ramps so I can load them in the Truck GPS?

I am still planning on making this event....just need "more" planning :}


Looks like Green Cove Springs is the IDEAL ramp for me coming from the south, does anyone have PERSONAL intel about this ramp?

Bump...

theres actually 2 ramps in green cove ... i suggest putting in at the mouth of Black creek .

Nice long ramp and good parking. you shouldnt have any issues at all. but again, remember all the ramps will likely be packed that day.
