Cape Conran boat ramp?

[rohan201990]

Hi guys been doing a fair bit of research on the Victorian coast line and in regards to broadbill and have found a few spots out from cape Conran the only problem is I have never been there nor seen the ramp. I have a V19C and was wondering if it would be possible to launch my boat from conran.
Cheers tight lines

A mate has a v19 and launched from there about 6weeks ago. Chasing kingies he had no problem you just need the weather on your side

Thanks mate might have to make the dash down there and try my luck for a broadbill

Make sure there is no South Westerly swell. Has to be flat calm or a little bit of North Easterly, Northerly. I haven't put my boat in there but I have watched many others launch and recover there. Definitely need a mate to help and watch out for the rock about 50 mtrs behind the ramp.

i launch there at least 6 times a year,it can be a great ramp or a p**** of a ramp depending on tide,i try to avoid the bottom of low when putting in,it can get a real surge on it making it hard to turn ur boat around to head out.by the time u drive to conran it can be quicker to head out from lakes if u can carry enough fuel

Thanks for the replies very helpful I have a 125l tank and can store a fair bit up front and have a '08 150hp e tec I'll keep researching. But thanks again

125lt wont be anywhere near enough from Lakes.

Conran is an ocean ramp with almost zero shelter, swell can be problematic.

It is only Approx 10nm closer to go to the canyon from Conran. 37nm verses 47nm

Probably get out there to join 100 other boats.
