    Drayton Island Ferry Ramp to Stegbones Fish Camp Ramp

    S23 Day Paddles - St Johns River Drayton Island Ferry Ramp to Stegbones Fish Camp Ramp Paddle Information Sheet Description: This paddle starts just above the north end of Lake George at the Drayton Island Ferry Ramp. The ferry is an auto ferry that crosses the St. Johns River in Putnam County, Florida, connecting Georgetown on the eastern bank with Drayton Island, located in the middle of the river at the north end of Lake George. It provides the only pub- lic access to the island. The paddle continues down through Little Lake George and past the town of Welaka on your right.

Business Support Letters About the Resource • The Rodman Dam was constructed in 1968 as part of the Cross Florida Barge Canal project. • The damming of the Ocklawaha River flooded more than 7,500 acres of forested wetlands, 16 miles of river and at least 20 springs. • The Ocklawaha River flows north/northeast. It is joined by the Silver River near Ocala, continuing until reaching the St. Johns River in Putnam County. It is the largest tributary of the St. Johns River. • Benefits of restoration extend well beyond Putnam County from the headwaters of the Ocklawaha in Lake County to the estuaries of the St. Johns River in Duval County and beyond. • Restoration has been identified as one of three essential components of the Silver Springs Basin Plan and an essential action to improve water quality in the St. Johns River. • One scientist called it “the Everglades of the north” but with a cost less than one Everglades restoration project. The economic and environmental return on investment would be unprecedented. • The actual restoration area is in Putnam and Marion Counties, but benefits a large regional area.
