Coming to the West Neck Marina Ramp This Fall or Winter...

A new gauge like the one in this photo. Charlie and I agree that we need something that will stand up better to the elements, and this one looks like it will do the trick.

Made by Ben Meadows, this fiberglass stream gauge is designed for long-term use in rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, and swamps. It's protected by a nonglare coating, which, according to the manufacturer, "makes it easy to read at long distances." Like the current gauge, this new one is 4 inches wide. It measures in feet, tenths and hundredths from 0 to 4 feet.

I'm going to buy the gauge, and Charlie has said he will help me install it. As already noted, we'll be waiting for a low-water period this coming fall or winter to do the job. Will let everyone know once the new gauge is in place.
