Douglas Park is a public boat ramp in Manistee County, Michigan, on Manistee River. From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: Manistee to Point Betsie MI, Pentwater to Manistee MI, Lake Michigan from Pentwater to Manistee MI 5NM offshore to Mid Lake (Area 3 of 3) and Lake Michigan from Point Betsie to Manistee MI 5NM offshore to Mid Lake (Area 1 of 3).
The main water here is Pentwater to Manistee 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 45024, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9087023. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 16.2 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
