About Slaughter Creek

Slaughter Creek is a river reached from boat ramps in Maryland. SeaStatus lists one ramp that launches into it, the closest being Smithville at 0.7 mi.

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 44062, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8571752, Taylors Island, Slaughter Creek, the closest one to here.
