Good grief. The boat ramp belongs to everyone who has to unload a boat, even if it's a kayak. You simply wait your turn and unload as quickly as you can. And, no, a fishing kayak does not belong on the rocks. I had mine off to the side, and launched as fast as possible, leaving plenty of room for another boat.
I too dislike waiting, but I've also sat in line at the ramp while bass boaters struggled with their engines or yelled at their wives to back up the truck etc. This is all par for the course at a public lake. The patience is all part of the courtesy.
I drive an old Japanese car, not only because I hate America, but because I don't want to waste money on fuel or car payments. I need that money for guitars and mircrobrews.
Next time I'll drive down that ramp on a girl's tricycle and spend an hour unloading my inner tube and teddy bears. Each one needs a separate outfit.
