JMIG 0 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Hi guys, hope everyone doing well On our way home last week from a driving holiday/runaway wedding through NSW and VIC, we came across this boat ramp. The bay of Martyrs in VIC.The sign at the top is quite interesting: Swimming not advised, strong currents, submerged rocks, something to do with cliffs, and NO lifesaving service. There isnt much room to swing a 4wd around at the top without a trailer on, so you would have to reverse over a speed-bump and around a 90degree corner, then down the boat ramp. Which is a pretty steep one! The sign at the bottom made me laugh, "vehicles not to be left on beach" What friggin beach!?!In my opinion, if I caught my hubby attempting to use this one he wouldnt be my hubby for very long ! Just asking...Does anyone know someone who has used this boatramp??I wonder how many calls Allianz have had about this spot? RJ5023, lusty21 and lure crazy 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

afishyfish 4 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Now thats what I call a Boat Ramp, I think ! You wouldnt want to run out of brakes on the way down :ohmy: :pinch: Oh well no good for me ' date='i cant even reverse properly at sullies crispy[/quote'] Nothing like being under pressure at the ramp to launch efficiently and then getting the car/ boat all over the place Quote Link to post Share on other sites
T BONE 1 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Think the YouFishTV blokes launched there BC 620C off that thing, was in mint conditions but still looks like a very daunting place to launch anything at the best of times! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
onthewater 0 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 The guys from YouFishTV drive down forward on low tide and do a youie on the beach to launch if its the that same location, don't they? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
