Boating access on the James east of Dutch Gap

[Tom Powers]

So I am looking for access on the James between Dutch gap and Surry. Hand launch would work. For fee is OK also.

I am having no luck.

Greys Creek Marina on Rt 31 between Surry Court House and Scotland /Jamestown Ferry.
Also across the river from there is a Marina?ramp on Powhatan Creek not far from the river and a good ramp in the campground at the mouth of the Chickahomany River

I know about the one on the Chickahomany at the Rt 5 bridge.

Do you have a better hint as to the location of Greys Creek Marina, maybe a road name? Is it on Marina Drive?

[BBCroaker]

Yes it is at the end of Marina Dr.It's just a small marina older boats and a Restaurant . Last time i was there I launched my kayak( $5 fee 2 yrs ago). but I have launched a jon boat ,a 16ft , a 19 and 20ft and 23ft boat over the years.
Had some good times bass fishing up the creek in the fall with some good fishing buddies long ago.
You mentioned hand launch would be ok .Are you launching your wooden kayak?

[Tom Powers]

Maybe but I also have a buddy with plastic boats.
