boat ramps
Vessel launching slopes
A boat ramp is an inclined surface extending into water, allowing boats to be launched from trailers or hauled out for storage.
Public boat ramps provide lake and river access; private ones serve marinas or waterfront homes.
We backed the trailer down the boat ramp and slid the kayaks into the water.
