Humarock - Ferry St. Ramp

[Mark Cahill]

From Rexhamer:

Ferry Street in Humarock area is asphalt in fair shape, almost all tides if you use gravel area on north side of asphalt, two trailers at once if careful, parking only for about 10, very limited dock space, particularly at low tide. $5 per day or seasonal pass for $50 (as of last year)

The Town of Marshfield has steadily improved the ramp and facilities at the Ferry St. (Whites Ferry) ramp. Some things of note:


There is now a floating tie - up on the ramp's down-river side capable of handling 3 boats at all tides. This is in addition to the float that existed near the Marshfield yacht club, which can handle 2 boats.
The yearly fee is now $75.00, and the pass may be obtained from the harbormaster at the office in Green Harbor.
The harbormaster has a boat in the river, and this ramp is checked regularly by his staff and self-policed by those who use it often. You will be ticketed if you park illegally or use the ramp without a day/year pass.
Try to avoid high tide launches on sunny days, you will hit the Spit crowd.
