Ramps that reach this water
Duluth MN to Port Wing WI is a nearshore coastal water reached from boat ramps in Wisconsin and Minnesota. SeaStatus lists 19 ramps that launch into it, the closest being Loons Foot at 0.0 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 45027, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9099064.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
