Another useless political stunt. All boaties already factored in this cost when they bought a boat. LX for example stores his tub in St Kilda marina.😉

It will never really increase the number of people using boat ramps unless they give away boats.
Exactly
People realise the cost these days so isn't going to dramaticly going to change the figers

The whole thing is about shifting where the money is spent, streamline infrastructure maintenance and bring the states ramps up to scratch. Go interstate and compare the conditions of their busiest ramps compared to ours. St Helens in Tassie is as good as Patto and they don't pay a cent for it. Hillary's in WA is even better than Patto and they also don't pay a cent. And let's not even compare just those 2 to the rest of our ramps because they make almost all our others look like a NT mud ramp
I think bermagui beats mornington

But every time I'm up there, there's always s9mething different, a new safety sign or handrails replaced, etc
