These slipway reviews are very useful indeed

Great detailed review Tommo, thanks for sharing.

Great vids these. Can you stay over in the van too do you know? Would be great for a weekend trip or even getting there night before for an early morning cruise.

So when launching on your own, what do you do with the boat once launched (while you park up van & trailer etc)??

Looks deserted. Rare to have that much parking space and a great looking wide clean slipway. Agree about the wash, tricky doing solo launch and recovery. Thanks for sharing.

Interested to find your launch reviews. I second the comments re wash- we got hit whilst recovering a rib and didnt expect it - partly swamped but no damage done - could have been worse.

Not many boats stored there now although has been a lot of thefts there recently. Good slipway. We launched our old Bayliner bowrider off there with no trouble and regal Cuddy cabin. Only pain is there isn't a pontoon to tie the boat to. Recovery wasn't too much of an issue but you did have to get a move on and watch the wash.
