The Natural High School field has been the historic site of the Clear Lake Splash-In for 43 years.
It is currently under
construction and being upgraded into a city park. NHS will no longer be available as our "home base."
We have permission from the City of Lakeport to open the First and Fifth Street
boat ramps to provide seaplane parking and display.
Ramp Schedule
By City use-permit, the ramps will be closed on Friday.
Both
ramps will be open 09:00 to 16:00 on Saturday, and 09:00 to 13:00 on Sunday.. If
you plan to arrive on Friday, park overnight at Lampson Field.
In order to avoid over-crowding arrivals at the ramps on Saturday, we will be releasing aircraft
from Lampson Field to allow ground crews at the ramps time to position and park each aircraft.
Note:
We will be sharing both ramps with boaters. Use 122.9 for
advisory information. Please be patient and courteous with our fellow ramp users.
First Street Ramp
The first Street ramp has a floating dock on the south side that is used
by Disney Boat Rentals. This concrete ramp is 50 feet wide
with no vertical posts.
Aircraft parking for those using the First Street ramp will be on Park Street,
which is 59 feet, curb-to-curb.
The Park Street display area will be from First Street to Third Street.
Fifth Street Ramp
The Fifth Street ramp has 44 feet of wingspan available between the vertical posts, and 29 feet between the two side docks.
There is a 2 foot high "shoulder" near the top on both sides of the walkway/docks.
This ramp will be used mainly by aircraft on floats. It has a wind-wall on the right (north) side and
a very well defined centerline cut in the concrete for taxi guidance.
Parking is to the left at the top of the ramp.
The Fifth Street ramp is at: N 39° 02.723, W 122° 54.807.
