Back River is a public boat ramp in Lincoln County, Maine, on Back River. From here SeaStatus scores 6 waters: Sasanoa River, Townsend Gut, Sheepscot River (Segment 2 of 4), Back River (Segment 4 of 4), Casco Bay and Coastal Waters from Port Clyde, ME to Cape Elizabeth, ME out 25 NM (Area 2 of 7).
The main water here is Coastal Waters from Port Clyde, ME to Cape Elizabeth, ME out 25 NM (Area 2 of 7). 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. Tide predictions come from NOAA station 8416968, Isle of Springs, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 11.2 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
