Boat ramp fee
Hello.
Getting ready to head out a fair bit all over PPB and WPB this upcoming snapper season and noticed that Hobsons Bay is charging $20 per casual boat launch (24 hour pass). Personally I think this is outrageous so decided to give them a call. Thankfully to save money you can buy a yearly pass for $305.... A you F***** kidding me.
Are all councils charging this sort of fee around metro Melbourne?
Does anyone know the bylaws relating to these boat ramp offences? Would really love to contest the legitimacy of them.

I think the money should go to the coast guard though bot the council....cant see the council coming out to save you when your bobbing around in the ocean.

Re: Boat ramp fee
So what's the purpose of licensing and registration?
What does the councils do to improve boating facilities? Should be cheaper for what we sometimes get.
