CommentsThe Hammerman Area has a small boat launch, however the water is extremely shallow and is only appropriate for non-motorized boats such as canoes, kayaks and row boats. Non-motorized vessel rentals are available at the beach. Those seeking to launch powerboats should launch at Dundee Creek Marina.
