And .... just to rub it in ... I believe that you are now paying extra $$ on your boat rego ... specifically to have a boat ramp built ?

My guess is that it would be built in a flash, if it was a Labor politicians kid dodging the snapping logs at the waters edge !

I thought there already was a ramp at Mourilyan? I used to fish there frequently back in '99-2000 when I was living in Innisfail and I'm sure I remember a ramp there? Admittedly I was hiring a boat at that stage from the hire place there, but I could swear there was a ramp. Not the worlds best, but a ramp nonetheless.

dump plenty of sand around the ramp (both side to make it easier for you) and blame the cyclone till the new one gets built ::)
