I don't know if anybody knows about this or not but they will be building a new boat launch in Delcambre. It will be further down the canal than the current one so you won't have to idle past all the shrimp boats. The state/parish just purchased the land from a family friend of ours and should be starting the new construction within the next few months from what I'm told. It will have a double backdown launch with enough space to be able to tie your boat up and it's out of the way. It will also have some slips that the shrimp boats will be able to back up into right next to the parking lot and sell shrimp straight off the back of their boats. They will also put a pavillion up to assist in fishing tournaments and stuff like that. There will be one of those ticket machines where you put your money in and you get a ticket to put on your dashboard for parking.
