The ramp at the Gilford town docks for Jetskis is getting very bad.There is a dropoff of 10 -12 inches beyond the concrete ramp itself.Saturday my trailer bottomed out on the ramp as I was backing down.I have small 8 inch wheels so the clearance is less than most trailers for full size boats.I noticed there were some rocks stacked to try and help with the transition from lake bottom to top of the ramp.I had to move them to line up with my narrower wheelbase.As I waited to launch I watched one lady leave the ramp after unloading and saw her trailer get some pretty good air as it hit the 12 inch high ramp edge.
Just wanted to get out a word of caution when using this ramp.
