144th Avenue is a public boat ramp in Ottawa County, Michigan, on Grand River. From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: Grand Haven to Whitehall MI, Holland to Grand Haven MI, Lake Michigan from Grand Haven to Whitehall MI 5NM offshore to Mid Lake (Area 3 of 3) and Lake Michigan from Holland to Grand Haven MI 5NM offshore to Mid Lake (Area 2 of 3).
The main water here is Holland to Grand Haven MI. Nearshore water is scored mostly on wind and wave height, with wave steepness and the tidal current counting too. A current running against the wind is treated as worse than either one alone. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 45029, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9087031. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 10.0 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
