calcasieu point construction pic

Fred's isn't much of a launch just some mud and chunks of concrete, that drops off very fast

[juicegoose]

Any new pics or info on the point?

As per the Calc Pt. Facebook page they should be finished in March with construction and will open back up as soon as they're able to catch shrimp again.

Wanna talk about frivolous, wasteful, spending. there it is right there. They need to fix 1000sq ft so they rip up the whole darn thing! This was a brother-in-law deal for sure.

I was in the LNG canal a little over a week ago. There were 2 pieces of equipment digging up dirt then. There was a 6'+ tall mound of dirt.

Did i see fuel tanks going in????? Nah just dreamin

They are getting close, concrete in the launch area is done but they are installing two islands which, in my opinion, will cause a bottleneck where trailers are pulling into the launch. The parish folks need to see what happens early on a busy Saturday morning.
Just my opinion, maybe it will be OK.

looks like before but cleaner. i wish they would've paved the parking lot instead

I guess that's one reason why I just had to pay 5% to the parish on the new boat I bought from out of state.

So not open yet though huh?

So what did they do???? Other then tear up the best boat ramp on the lake an pour the EXACTsame thing that was there???

Sure seems like a big waste to me. They should have used that money to build some more dock space. Probably a brother-in-law deal that pours concrete

The water was burrowed underneath the ramp and the dirt underneath the ramp was washing out. Sounds like they're trying to keep it the best boat ramp on the lake

Well thats some info...... good deal thanks Aubrey

Still wish they installed a few more boat slips

I walked around out there yesterday. I could not see any work that was done on the ramp but the concrete area is all redone. The barriers that I saw were just left of homerun's picture, maybe they won't interfere.
