Basin Landing (Turtles Bar). I think it’s $5 to launch, but the odds of your shite being vandalized or burgled are much slimmer than the public launch.

ETA: Kern’s landing is also a good option. If I remember correctly it’s a $4 launch. Honor system.

I’d pass on Kerns with a 24 foot boat. Dragging a heavy boat up that gravel ramp sucks.

You mean over the levee? Yeah it’s a little steep right there.

Have they ever put up a dock there, or do you still have to drive the fiberglass boat onto the gravel?

No. The ramp itself. I know it’s concrete underneath but the last few times I have been there the ramp has been covered in gravel.

No dock. Try to find some mud between the gravel.

I never had that problem, but I haven’t been in a while. I’ve just been using basin landing. Better ramp, good dock, no issues with people messing with my truck. I’d recommend that route the most.
