More important, check the tide tables to be sure you are not at low tide, or you will high center the coach going on the ramp.
That's usually a setup issue, the person running the ramp has not set it right. They are designed to allow a sport-car to pass, without bottoming out, at any tide. Sometimes the person running the ramp gets lazy and doesn't want to run it up/down far enough.
we are coming up June, the lowest summer tides. I'd not bet my rig on if the ramp is good enough at a really low tide. I know our 40' Newmar will high center at or below half tide on any given day.
I don't believe that it is the ramp operator's fault, the ramp is lowered until it strikes the ferry deck. Mother nature determines where that is.
