Bayfront:

black point
how about out of black point marina, on the north side of the marina.....you walk out with your gear and drift launch and then just self rescue to come in...


looks like it would be flat...

we should cross post this on FKSA..

I have heard of guys riding off of Bayfront Park but I have never been there myself. If I am that far south normally I'm on the way to the Keys. I would think you could easily do an assisted launch from the shallows just walking over what appears to be a rubble seawall to the east. I am not sure land based launching would be that great an idea.

You would want to avoid boat traffic, we've had friction with boaters at Matheson already. Also, try not to look like a terrorist when barges servicing the Turkey Point Nuc Plant are in transit!
