As title states, looking to bring my scarab to winni. Looking for a nice well maintained ramp and ample parking for the tow rig. Not concerned about costs but looking for a nice concrete ramp with a rather shallow entry if possible!
Thanks
Jim

I've used the one at Alton Bay a few times. The ramp is a little steep but it works fine. There's room for good size trailers there also. I think the last time I was there it cost me $40 to park my truck and trailer for the day. "My trailer is for a 32' boat". I think my buddy paid $25 or $30 to launch and park his 25 Outlaw. Get there early because it fills up quick.

Ames farm has a lot of space for parking and not to busy or steep also.

I am actually up at squam lake for the week with the little boat and since it looks like it may be a wet one today I think I will go check these places out. Thanks guys!!
Let me know if anyone else can think of any?

Talked to the owner today and apparently the town of gilford closed them due to a zoning violation. Now you have to be staying at the inn to use the launch!

Both have decent launches and can accommodate tri-axle trailers + tow rigs. The launch at west Alton marina looks a little better so I might try them!

I had been a guest not too long ago and didn't realize some of my buddies must have been sliding under the radar on ramp/parking here then.
