Charles River is a public boat ramp in Suffolk County, Massachusetts, on Charles River. From here SeaStatus scores 3 waters: Charles River (Segment 3 of 10), Sunset Bay and Boston Harbor.
The main water here is Charles River (Segment 3 of 10). Rivers are scored mostly on wind and current. Wave height is not part of the score, because a river has no real sea state; visibility and comfort make up the rest. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 44013, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8443662, Amelia Earhart Dam, Mystic River, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 1.4 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
