Overview
The Rossport Marina has one boat launch available for boaters. The boat launch can be accessed via Dock Street which runs south off of Main Street in the Village of Rossport. Boaters can request assistance from the Marina Attendant if required. There is limited parking on Dock Street with no parking areas clearly indicated. Parking in front of the Marina office is strictly prohibited as the office is also used by the Rossport Voluntary Fire Department to store equipment. Violator's vehicles will be towed away at the owner's expense.
Boat Launch Fee
Daily Launch Pass: $5.00 per launch (If you want to purchase a pass for more than 1 day, use the Number Selector on the payment screen to select the number days.)
Seasonal Pass: $50.00 payable in advance
During hours when the Marina Attendant is on duty, boat launch fees can be paid through the Marina Attendant via debit/credit card.
During hours when the Marina Attendant is not on duty, boaters are required to make their payment via debit/credit card by using the payment buttons provided above or by scanning the associated QR code that is displayed below or at the Marina office.
Upon receipt of payment, the boater will be provided with a receipt which should be presented to marina staff upon request as proof of payment for boat launch services. If the payment was made via credit/debit card, the boater will receive a receipt via email. If the payment was made by cash or cheque, the Marina Attendant will provide the boater with a printed receipt. If the boater intends to be on the lake for a period of time and has parked their vehicle and trailer near the marina, its is recommended that the receipt be placed on the dash of the boater's vehicle.
