About Sturgeon Bay Yacht Club

Sturgeon Bay Yacht Club is a boat ramp in Door County, Wisconsin, on Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal. From here SeaStatus scores 5 waters: Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI, Sturgeon Bay to Two Rivers 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 6 of 10), Lake Michigan from Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI 5NM offshore to mid lake (Area 1 of 4) and Lake Michigan from Sturgeon Bay to Two Rivers WI 5NM offshore to Mid Lake (Area 4 of 4).

The main water here is 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 6 of 10). 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 4.8 mi from this ramp.
