Anyone knows of a good source for information on where the boat ramps
are located in the Sacramento area for the American River and the
Sacramento River? I know about Discovery Park and Garden Hwy, but
cruising up and down the river there are quite a few other ramps/parks
visible.

Verona Marina. Where the Feather comes into the Sac. Nice ramp, $10.
Shallow ramp below Freeport on the West side of the river. Free, but can be
very hard to launch sometimes if silted up.

Charts
Nautical charts provide information regarding water depths,
hazards, locations of navigational aids, and identifiable
landmarks to assist the boater in navigation. The following
charts cover the Sacramento River area: 18661SC, San Joaquin
River (lower Sacramento River) 18662SC, Sacramento River (Andrus
Island to Sacramento) 18664, Sacramento River (Sacramento to
Colusa)



Anyone knows of a good source for information on where the
boat ramps are located in the Sacramento area for the American
River and the Sacramento River? I know about Discovery Park
and Garden Hwy, but cruising up and down the river there are
quite a few other ramps/parks visible.

http://www.californiadelta.org/
and http://www.californiadelta.ort/campint.htm

have private ramps.

Several public ramps too.

Garcia Bend (free), Elkhorn (by Hwy. 5), one at Garden Hwy by the Sac.
Airport, several others.

Getting one of Hal Shell's maps at a marina on the delta would show
you all of them (and they're great maps too).
