NPH Coast Gaurd Launch Fines! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

newportdogs · 06-26-2018, 12:12 AM

I live in Newport Beach and have been launching there for 8 years. This is clearly money talking, total BS. There are many kayakers launching there, not just those who fish. Here are the hand carried boat launch sites as of today from the city website. Notice launch site 39, OCHD Boat Docks, that’s the docks next to the beach. I will be taking this map down to the Coast Guard Station this week to confirm whether or not 39 still exists and what it means. Parking can’t be the issue, you can park on the street.

After I confirm what’s going on I’m looking forward to discussing this with my city councilman, Duffy Duffield. The last time I tried to contact him it was crickets, he’s worthless. Too busy selling Duffy boats.

The city of Newport Beach e-mailed me back.... I'm going to try to get an address and name so I can start documenting:

Good morning Frank,

Our Dock Master would be the person that you will want to speak to regarding kayak launching in Newport Beach. They will be able to further assist and let you know where it is permitted.

They can be reached at 949-270-8159.

Thank you.
