About St. Mays Lake

St. Mays Lake is a public boat ramp in Mason County, Michigan, on St. Mays Lake. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: Whitehall to Pentwater MI and Pentwater to Manistee MI.

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 17.1 mi from this ramp.
