Where to find public access points?
Greetings. New to boating and this forum. I just recently moved to NH and bought a small cheapo inflatable. Is there a website or some other place where I can find where the public access points are to the different ponds and lakes in NH? I know the fish and game has their list of boat ramps. But I'm looking more for where I can carry my inflatable into ponds without going through someone's backyard.
For example, Little Island Pond in Pelham. I picked that pond since it is close to where I live and I know there is boating there. I found this... http://www.wildlife.state.nh.us/Fish...and_pelham.pdf ...which says "Town Cartop Access". What does that mean and where could I park and gain access to this pond without entering someone's yard? |
The only list I know of is this one. It lists all known *Public* boat access in NH.

Also, aren't they noted on the charts?

Lakes Newfound, Winnisquam and Squam all have no-fee, State of NH boat ramps, w/ double launch ramps and docks and parking for tow vehicle & trailer, plus rest rooms. Newfound has the clearest water plus Whittemore Point State Park close to the launch ramp.

FLL I don't think he/she wants access to Winnie or a BIG lake with a cheapo inflatable.
AStack - There is a map of all public access points but I can't find it right now. If nobody else comes up with it I'll post it in a day or so when i find it. |

It's definitely not for me, but I occasionally see other inflatables—mostly outboards—on Lake Winnipesaukee. :look: Quote:
BTW: I think it was Penn-Yan who once made a 14-foot "Cartopper-Flyer" model. So light, it could have been made from cardboard! http://woodencanoeshop.wcha.org/3dingy.jpg It would have been a perfect boat for launching into several different NH lakes in one day, so I wasn't shocked to see one at a boat auction marked with NH Fish & Game logos; however, I was shocked at how light it was! (A one-man cartopper). :coolsm: . |

Map vs Chart
FYI,
maps are for land - charts are used on water bodies. |
