The Celtic Quest makes a contract with the town for the month of May, I don't know what the $$$ amount is. When fares show up in the morning to sail, the mate gives them a parking permit good for that day only. The boat has been coming to Jamesport for about five years now, except last year when they were shut down. I guess if he kept the boat at his home port in Port Jef. he would be tied at the dock for most of the month. I was there this afternoon when the boat came in & he sure had a crowd, at $100 a head.

Will the DEC ever build a boat launching ramp on Peconic Bay ????

Hopefully the town is making enough money to make it worth it

China Cat, you complained about getting your stones busted as a Non Resident.
The emphasis was meant to be on the fact that my buddy lives around the corner from the ramp and IS a resident. I live close by in town of Southampton and trying to help a legal local resident
Yet a non local head boat and all their customers get to use a place thats 2 mins from my buddies house because they buy in and we get hassled
Thats my point.
John gave me my answer

As a southampton resident I cant complain about access to ramps
Although my boat stays in the water and there is a private ramp in my community, its nice knowing there are nice town owned ramps that give access to peconic shinnecock and moriches. My previous boat was on a trailer and I used all of them

Thanks for the pics!! Would it be illegal to launch kayaks other car top boat from those slabs prior to its completion? assuming one could get the kayak into the water and then park somewhere else off site. Hate to be that guy but access to any decent LI waterway is tantamount to Commando/ Guerilla Warfare! SMH

Sag Harbor is the only place a Non Resident can launch for a reasonable fee. Like $15-20 dollars. You can even park your boat trailer on the street a block or two away. Haven't used the ramp to launch, just drove by it after reading a story in the LIF last summer or fall.

I don't know where the ramp is in Sag harbor, but there is access to the Peconic from Sag Harbor through the south race, as far as access to Long Island sound you would have to travel into the Peconic then go through Plum Gut which would put you into the east end of Long Island Sound. I would suggest a long hard look at your chart before attempting such a trip,.

It's on Bay Street
If you are coming from the west you come over the bridge into town and go straight instead of turning right in the downtown village area.
It's apparently free to village residents but no clue about fees for non residents
<h4>Village Ramp</h4>Bay Street
Sag Harbor, NY 11963
Phone: 631-725-2368
Open 24 hours a day, free to residents.
I did a google maps search and don't much space for trailer parking

Does Sag Harbor provide access to the peconics or the sound?

Thanks all. I was only asking because my preference was the peconics. I have a couple places I can put in to fish the sound. The peconics is more like fort knox.. Though I have probably already missed the spring scup run. 2021 is turning out to be a rerun of 2020 as far as family affairs and work life drama go. By the time I can put in the fishing shouldd be fairly solid in my neck of the woods... Jamaica Bay

Completion date is supposed to be by July 4 I think. I have a feeling that they won’t be doing any paving. Maybe pavers or crushed stone like the Mattituck ramp. A lot can happen in the next 2 weeks.
