Boat Ramps

The two boat ramps in Gulf Harbors are owned by the Gulf Harbors Civic Association and maintained for the benefit of our membership.

The north Channel ramp, off Bowline Bend, has a steep incline and is suitable for all size boats.  The South Channel ramp near the intersection of Floramar Terrace and Topsail Trail can be used at all times but it is better suited for use at mid or low tides.

To schedule a ramp opening, contact one of the following official key holders.  They are volunteers.  Please give them a minimum of 1 HOUR notice.  The official key holders are listed below.

John Caccavale        859-9711
Bob Sherley             849-3062
Bob Tarallo              816-9422
Bob Greytak            843-8274
Charles Henry          849-5035
Robert Tinsley          475-0734

3. Non-members will be charged $80 (in advance) for each opening of the ramp.

4. Do not use your engines to load or unload boats.

5. Bring your own helpers. It is not the responsibility of the key holders to assist you in launching or retrieving your boat.
