Hey guys, hoping for some advice. Have a lake across the street and a small common boat launch/ramp area for kayaks, canoes, row boats and such. It's a small non motorized community lake. Currently the ramp is mostly dirt and sand. We want to refurbish and stabilize it a bit so there is less erosion from rain and use. I had suggested 3/4" clean stone about 3"-4" thick on the slope extending into the water a few feet. I'm sure it will need to be refurbished or re-raked every year and we're ok with that. Obviously something more permanent like concrete or modular units or even a floating dock would be better but money is an issue of course. I was also thinking maybe some geotexte fabric beneath the stone. Any suggestions? TIA
