Default Call Miles Marine

The Glendale ramp will work but I believe you have to be a Gilford resident or business, or the boat has to belong to a Gilford resident to use it.

The Meredith ramp is poorly designed and the angle of the turn around for the boat and trailer makes it difficult to navigate. Any large combination of boat and towing vehicle needs to pull out across the road to back in successfully.

The ramp at Shep Brown's in Meredith will work.

Call Miles Marine in Gilford. 603-527-1887. They launch large boats, some over 50 feet in length, from hydraulic trailers every day. The do the majority of the large boat transports for most all of the marinas on Winnipesaukee and also move all of the NH Marine Patrol's larger boats. I am sure they can tell you where you can and cannot launch.

PS. A 35 inch boat is not that big!
