    Do u launch there Fed? That is a hot spot for wankers 10's possibly into the hundreds on a summer weekend use that ramp

    I will admit i was once one of those wankers 20 years ago but these days its chaos

    Boats going every which way people flying everywhere 100-130kph im surprised theres no fatal hots there yet

    About 7 years ago i went there just for a quick zip on my jetski and got a warning in the mail about riding a jetski to close to other boats

    With all the boating activity ur boat cops a floggin tied up to that wharf

    Yeah I should have said NO WEEKENDS but during the week it's OK.
    Who fishes on weekends anyway?
    Been using that ramp for 50 Years.
    Take a teaspoon of 'passive/aggressive' beforehand and the jetskiers fade into the background.
    I normally launch to the wharf but coming home I pull up on the sand and walk the boat over (see pic taken from boat), hook it up & pull the powerwinch string.
    Even the old Caribbean Commodore was a piece of cake solo (heavy boat).

    Plenty of parking early morning.

    Why do you break down so much. Isn’t that a worry when you plan to go so far offshore in any weather?

    as fed said if your going to use busy ramps you just have to chill and be patient

    Like all of them mate they're only as good as the driver so it was perfect.
    Drive it wrong and it could shudder when it hit waves, wander at low speed (sterndrive) and broach a bit if you let it.
    Nothing dangerous though.
