Does anyone out there a decent place to launch your boat in laughlin? Last time there I launched right next to the riverside and it was so bad there. Also anywhere ther that you can leave your boat in the water to avoid taking it out every day. Thanks in advance.

This is not really an answer to your question, but I have had my boat in the river at Laughlin though.  The funny part is that I launched in Lake Havasu City and went that far upriver. :rotflmao

If you go south from the casinos there is a state park with a nice launch ramp. Sorry I forgot the name of the place :stupid

The state park on the Nev side is Big Bend state park. Nice ramp, good parking, tons of lake lice. Across the river about a mile down on the Az side is what is technically known as the Arizona Memorial North Entrance. Better known as Lazy Harry's. Decent ramp, sheltered from the river (no current), best of all, just a couple houses from my house  :D You can beach your boat in the key, but with the flows in Laughlin, you don't want to keep it in overnight.

There is a ramp just north of the Riverside,  on the north side of the parking lot.

Well, it's right off the Riverside parking lot, but I don't know if it's private or not.  Give the Riverside a call, they would know for shure.   :good

I always stay at harrahs and launch at the riverside.  I believe it is public.

The one at the Riverside is public and best of all its free. Its a small ramp and the water flow there is real rough. So i guess its a give and take.

Depending on how far you wanna go there is always The Avi. Not too bad there. Just pay attention to water levels and time out. When the level drops.... it really drops. Or you can always go out to Lake Mojave about 15 minutes from the strip.

Avi won't let you launch unless you are staying at the hotel, at least thats what I heard.

If Im staying at the river palms which is the best place to launch. Arizona memorial? How do you get there from the river palms? I was reading about big bend. They said there is no trailer parking for day use users. How do you get to arizona memorial ramp. Thanks
