About Rock Pond

Rock Pond is a public boat ramp in Essex County, Massachusetts, on Rock Pond. From here SeaStatus scores 3 waters: Parker River, Coastal Waters from Cape Elizabeth, ME to Merrimack River, MA out 25 NM (Area 1 of 12) and Massachusetts Bay and Ipswich Bay (Area 2 of 11).

The main water here is Parker River. 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 44074, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8440889, Riverside, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 4.5 mi from this ramp.
