I live right on the west side of the Belknap Mountains in Gilmanton and I just bought my first powered boat. Just got my license 2 weeks ago. Getting ready to clog up some boat ramp on Winni in the near future trying to launch my boat….

Ha... I've seen this many times and it still cracks me up! Hey Greenie, could you please launch at Glendale? Those Breeze patrons pay a lot for their cocktails and deserve some first class entertainment!!

I didn’t realize there were responses to my comment lol…..but that looked pretty close to how I expected it to go. I actually did pretty good, started on Crystal Lake in Gilmanton to practice before going on the big lake.

Congratulations! It's really not that difficult, especially when you don't have a crowd of onlookers waiting for you to screw up!

My family has a place on Suncook right up the road from you. Be happy to help you out when I'm up that way with tips/tricks to make things a little easier!

I checked out the new ramp at Downings Landing in Alton and they did a really nice job with it! There were even a few spots open to park on the 4th! It would be an ideal spot to launch for ya, and a lot less steep than the ramp at Shibley's.
