I know Fed and Fedette like to spend their Sunday mornings at the ramp, watching the geniuses backing their trailers and boats to the water.
Saw this ramp on a recent trip south. How would most of the locals go backing down this one.  No room for error here.

After going to so much effort making a boat ramp you'd think they would have at least made it go all the way into the water.
I'd take a skate board for the walk back down from parking the car. --------------------  SEAFARER: Fine as a Fairy's Fart |

Piece of cake backing down but you would want to have complete faith in your handbrake before falling out of car to launch/retrieve the boat, and I would dread the walk up those steps to get the car once your fishing session way over. Would encourage you to stay out longer to pospone the chore as long as possible. -------------------- Frank

The car park is quiet good, provides parking for 12 boat/trailer combinations and heaps of cars only parking, about 100 yds left of the top of the ramp. -------------------- Frank
