The site needs to have an appropriate amount of available land, access to major road networks, fit for purpose (i.e. shelter from prevailing winds), suitable depth of water for boats,not adversely affect the environment, and also provide community benefits.

i think the only place that will tick all those boxes will be gladstone harbour. environment already stuffed there.

Would be nice if they dredged the channel out from the existing ramps at Rosslyn Bay. Man its shallow atm on big outs...my sounder said 60cm of water heading out the other morning, and it was still an hour from the low...

Sorry, it has been like that since the 80's(design fault) and the Govt dredged back in'10 @ the cost of 5k a DAY ?? and then only worked til ,,well its full again now,,! but it STILL would not help if they dredged it to 6 mtrs deep it all comes back to TRAFFIC congrestion ,,,ON & OFF the water, Roads, carparking and Ramp Rage which are the main complaints WE NEED ANOTHER alltide deep water access on the Cap Coast !

I didn't think wilson wanted to pay for the marina side to be dredged it filled in pretty quick again

[BOMBIE]

No he didnt ,but no boats in = no $$$

is emu park the only suggestion or is ther ean option towards yeppoon, i must admit the ramps at rosslyn bay are great ramps but parking is a night mare, but every ramp is like that nearly.

supa..

[BOMBIE]
