Up in Copper Harbor, the water is clear enough to see first hand exactly what power loading does to a launch ramp. This photo was taken off the back of my boat docked up in the launch.
Depth at the end of the dock was about 4 feet. The middle of the hole was about 5 feet, and the area surrounding the hole was about 2 -3 feet!
I had to push my boat out and let her float a good 50 feet before I felt comfortable enough to lower the drives and start up the engines.
