About Frenchman Bay

Frenchman Bay is a public boat ramp in Hancock County, Maine, on Frenchman Bay. From here SeaStatus scores 3 waters: Intra Coastal Waters from Schoodic Point, ME to Stonington, ME (Area 3 of 3), Coastal Waters from Eastport, ME to Schoodic Point, ME out 25 NM (Area 1 of 6) and Coastal Waters from Schoodic Point, ME to Stonington, ME out 25 NM (Area 2 of 2).

The main water here is Intra Coastal Waters from Schoodic Point, ME to Stonington, ME (Area 3 of 3). 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 8413320, BAR HARBOR, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 10.7 mi from this ramp.
