Can someone tell me if they have launched from or built a boat ramp that was constructed from pre-cast concrete planks like this.......pre-cast concrete boat ramp
I am thinking of making my own for my property.

We have 2 on our lake, 1 the DNR put in and everyone at the lake uses it. It works good.
The other one is a private one at our resort. I couldn't use it last year, water was too shallow. I did notice last week that the ice pushed a couple of the planks up on the private one this year. Now the planks weren't tied togeather like the ones show in your link.
Just make sure your planks go out into the water past the wheels of the trailer. I couldn't use the one at our resort beacause if I backed the trailer in far enough to get the boat on, the wheels weren't on the planks. I was afraid I might not be able to pull the boat out having to pull the wheels up over the last plank (too big a bump).
