TOPOCK!!!!!!!!
What ever you do……don’t launch at Topock. We got there at about noon on Friday and the ramp was blocked off. Talked to the “rampguy”…..he said there is a huge drop off at the end of the ramp that showed up a few weeks ago.
We saw a guy, who didnÂ’t get the memo, getting towed out because Â…..yepÂ…Â….you guessed itÂ…Â…drop of the end of the ramp and got stuck.
Ended up launching at Moabi (first time) and loved it! Nice big ramp and better parking.
Side noteÂ…Â…wear shoes or sandals when walking on the rampÂ…..the grooves are massive.
Enjoy!

We pulled up to lunch when that guy was getting helped out. (if we are talking about the same guy) I couldn't believe how steep that ramp is, worse than site 6.

The guy I saw had a couple of PWC's.....was being pulled out by a small SUV. I usually don't have a problem launching there......but I guess the improvements they made last year didn't work. :hammerhea

I launched at Jack Smith for the first time since they redid it. Just awesome, new ramp and the "bay" had been gutted out and now no more weeds. FYI there were a couple of 28 Magic's launching with no problems.

The parking is the same lot but there wasn't anyone there but a hand few of trailers. They charged us on Saturday but not Friday.
