Fuckers that get shitty when you won't take on a job that you don't want. Even worse when it is family.

Only hillarys, Ocean Reef & cockburn have launch & retrieve specific ramps AFAIK.

All others are 'courtesy' based, which doesn't work in this day & age of self important, impatient cockheads.

It's pretty simple logic really, if you pull up to launch & there's some one waiting to retrieve allow them to pull their boat out...there's no point in ramming your boat down their throats....

What shits me is people who launch & then tie up to the dock & fuck around for a 1/2 hour whilst getting organized to leave the ramp.....Use the Rigging area you cock!

When I used to fish the Bream tourney's we would have 30+ Bream boats waiting to be retrieved at the Matilda bay ramp, on average the retrieval time per boat was under 5 minutes per boat.





Simple method, drop your buddy off & let him get the car, back the trailer to submerge it, drive the boat on & attach the winch hook...drive out...Done. There's no need to tie up alongside the ramps dock.

Pic one was my case in point. I've always known it as Crawley Bay though.

I've always just lined up with the car and trailer (with or without boat) and taken my turn. It takes about the same time to launch and retrieve my boat. I feel that the car and trailer holds your place in the queue, not how close your mate can get the boat to the launching ramp impatiently trying to jump the queue.

Definately there's a lot of ramp rage at deepwater point, most of the users there are skiers or wakeboarders that lauch and retrieve quickly, the cabin/fishing boats with drivers full of piss after a day's fishing are the ones who want to unload a tonne of crap from their boat while still sitting on the ramp. Or the dumasses old buggers that hand winch a 60kg dinghy the whole way up the trailer. Or worse still, spend 10 minutes setting up $60 supercheap electric winch for a boat you could push on the trailer if he would get the Magna back wheels wet!!!!!

Thats it... I need a boat. I need to partake in these shennanigans!

On the shit me point... c**nts doing 90-95kp/h on Wanneroo Rd / Perth - Lancelin road... in a legal 110 zone. Sigh. In fact... any dick driving well under the speed limit. (I dont mean 1-2 sorta deal - fudge factor for speedo's... etc).

You can guarantee they'll do 70 in a fucking 80 zone too, seem to think they are saving the world by going slower when all the bastards do is cause frustration & accidents.

I sit on ~95-100 in my 80 series in 110 zones. otherwise it mobs through the fuel. But people in a perfectly functional car eg commodore that do 90 in a 100zone... and then it changes to 80 and they sit on 90 still... ??
