Ramps that reach this water
Vineyard Sound is a nearshore coastal water reached from boat ramps in Massachusetts. SeaStatus lists 20 or more ramps that launch into it, the closest being Town of Chilmark Landing (State Road) 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 44020, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8448325, Cedar Tree Neck, the closest one to here.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
