I just stumbled into this thread, and I didn't read the article (and not going to) but am I missing something here?
There's concern about backing a trailer into the Yuba for a few minutes to launch a boat? Seriously? Is there something special about this river that is different than any other river up and down the state? What about Englebright Lake above the river? Should we not be allowed to launch recreational boats at Englebright Lake Marina upstream?
One probably leaks more oil from their car and leaves more rubber from tires that eventually washes into the river by driving DAILY to and from work on the roadway than they will from launching their boat in a river a FEW times a year.
And there's no objection to launching boats... as long as we carry them to the river? Huh?
Using this logic, we should carry our cars to work instead of driving them? After all, we could buy lighter cars or car pool with real strong coworkers to help us carry them. I don't get it. This logic is over my head.
And I'm no engineer, but my guess would be if you can build a bridge over a river, you can build a ramp on one.
