Their is a launch at 14th ave. small but nice little launch. 45 minute ride to lake washington 7 knot speed limit until you get to webster point witch is at the entrance to the lake and the under pass to get past 520. I thought about that also but read this morning that is where the indians will be launching from to put their nets in lake union so their wont be any spots to park friday morning but on saturday when most of the buisnesses are closed you may find a spot. I moore my boat just west of their and took it out at this launch to have it worked on should be fixed by thursday. I think I will try someplace else to put it in. If it is anything like the launch under the first ave bridge on the duwamish when they are netting you will be lucky to find a spot to park.
