About Jackson Harbor

Jackson Harbor is a public boat ramp in Door County, Wisconsin, on Lake Michigan. From here SeaStatus scores 6 waters: 5NM East of a line from Fairport MI to Rock Island Passage, Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI, Green Bay south of line from Cedar River to Rock Island Passage and north of a line from Oconto WI to Little Sturgeon Bay WI (Area 10 of 10), Green Bay North of line from Cedar River MI to Rock Island Passage (Area 4 of 7), Lake Michigan from Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI 5NM offshore to mid lake (Area 4 of 4) and Lake Michigan from Seul Choix Point to Rock Island Passage 5NM offshore to Mid Lake (Area 1 of 3).

The main water here is Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI. 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 9087072. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 21.4 mi from this ramp.
