Project Description

The Gulf Consortium is requesting $4,538,586 for Project 18-10 Kingfish Boat Ramp Renovation and Expansion, in collaboration with subrecipient, Manatee County. The project includes the renovation and expansion of the existing Kingfish Boat Ramp facility located on the north side of Manatee Avenue on the western landing of the Anna Maria Bridge in Manatee County. The main construction scope includes increasing the number of ramps, replacing the seawall, increasing the dock area, paving parking areas, and other associated property improvements detailed in the narrative. Kingfish Boat Ramp is the most heavily utilized boat ramp in Manatee County and has served the steadily increasing number of boaters in Manatee County since the 1960s. Major structural components of the facility include over 600-feet of concrete seawall, 350-feet of wooden docks and a 55-foot wide concrete launch ramp comprised of 3 launch lanes and a floating finger dock; all of which are nearing the end of their serviceable lifespan.
