About Hillsboro

Hillsboro is a public boat ramp in Caroline County, Maryland, on Tuckahoe Creek. From here SeaStatus scores one water: Tuckahoe Creek.

The main water here is Tuckahoe Creek. 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 44063, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8572669, Hillsboro, Tuckahoe Creek, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 3.4 mi from this ramp.
