I think slipway is the British term. From the leisure=slipway wiki

Yes, I'm happy now that they're using the term to apply to both types of

Anyhow, I've changed the tagging to show highway=service to the
approximate high water mark, then

Has anyone got a better suggestion for showing a boat ramp than

tag is meant to apply to nodes, not ways.
I would suggest tagging the way leisure=slipway.

Yeah, how strange that a slipWAY can supposedly only apply to a NODE.

Also, from the wiki for 'service':
Generally for access to a building, motorway service station, beach,
campsite, industrial estate, business park, etc..
This doesnt sound wrong to me, if a service road can lead to a beach or
campsite, why not to

A service road can lead to a boat ramp. But the boat ramp itself is
not a point, it's a line. It's usually pretty clear where the ramp
starts - where it ends is usually harder to find unless you go wading.

How about tagging boat ramps as:
highway=service

I think a slipway is different from a boat ramp. I know a slipway as a
track (perhaps with rollers) for launching boats and for winching them
ashore for repairs.
Hi John,
Ive been tagging a few boatramps lately, and your suggestion is
basically exactly what Ive been doing, but I have also wondered if it is
the best method, and had a few questions.
Firstly, leisure=slipway works fine for most cases of boatramps, but
some boatramps arent 'leisure', for
