Rodolphe Street 6122, Durham boat launch
Rodolphe Street 6122, Durham
The boat ramp is reportedly 30 feet wide, which should be sufficient for most watercraft to launch and retrieve. However, it is always advisable to check the specifications of your particular boat to ensure it can safely navigate this ramp.
The ramp provides access to Little River Reservoir, which is a popular spot for boating and fishing in the Durham area. This body of water is relatively small, covering just under 400 acres, but it offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor recreation.
According to the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, a variety of watercraft are permitted on Little River Reservoir, including boats with electric motors, canoes, kayaks, and sailboats. Gas-powered boats are also allowed, but they are subject to certain restrictions and must comply with state regulations. It is always best to check with local authorities for the most up-to-date information on permitted watercraft and any other rules or regulations that may apply to this particular body of water.

Boating safety & etiquette
- Check the conditions before you launch
- Use the streamflow numbers, weather, and wind forecast on this page. High-cfs whitewater requires whitewater-specific craft and skill.
- Wear your life jacket
- Statistically the single biggest survival factor in a boating incident. State law often requires one per passenger.
- File a float plan
- Tell someone on shore your put-in, take-out, and expected return time. Especially for multi-day or remote trips.
- Yield at the ramp
- Prep gear in the parking lot, not on the ramp. Launch and clear quickly so others can use the lane.
- Clean, drain, dry
- Inspect, clean, drain and dry your boat between waters to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species.

About Rodolphe Street 6122, Durham
Can I launch a motorboat here?

Is there a fee?
Many federal and state boat launches charge a day-use fee. Check the operator's site before driving out.
What boat is right for these conditions?
