ledge point launching??

Hi

 

I have a 6.4m fibre glass boat that is quite heavy that I am considering taking up to ledge. Does anyone know if I will stand a chance launching and retreiving with a 07 hilux 4x4 turbo desiel?

 

cheers

Would be hard work i reckon. The done thing up there is to drag the boat onto the beach with a rope/strap, then winch the boat onto the trailer. I have seen several cars completely flooded from trying to retrieve by reversing into the water.

In Lancelin (about 13km North) Launching off the beach is easy but my boat is small, If I was you I would not take it as there is almost no fish there
