At some point in the future I want to launch a sea ray Sundancer 290... is the ramp steep enough for a big old mofo that draws quite a bit of water?

Contact point is right around the corner and is a much wider ramp.

The ramp by the outer harbor is pretty tight.

It’s gated and secure if I recall... because my truck and trailer will sit there empty for 4 days while we are out on the lake

Is contact or takeout within the havasu springs property or some where else... I would prefer a somewhat secure parking situation because I am not launching and retrieve every day. Launch and return 4 days later...

I launched my 33 Daytona there. I think the ramp should be fine.

Its take off point.. It is on the other side of the springs next to parker dam. Alot steeper ramp than springs. We launch from the springs all the time as we are from parker. Super easy ramp.

If the CRA are closing there ramps most likely the springs will. I can ask friend works there.
