Photos......... New Boat Ramp Leeman....UPDATE
UPDATE ON NEW RAMP
From the Council News letter,
Illyarrie Street, Leeman Boat Ramp update.
All that is left to do is some line marking, which is planned for the week of 24 November, nd then the site willbe cleaned and cleared of debris. Signs are also due to go upshortley.
Visitors and boating enthusiasts alike are welcome to the site which will be "open for business," from Saturday 29th November, 2014. A offical opening is planned for Friday 12 December 2014 which will allow the two major funding agencies (Dept of Transport and Regional Development) the chance to see how their money was spent.
Just took these photos today, enjoy southerly was in but not strong. Cleaning fishbay in front of tiolets, plenty of lighting for night time, Council big wigs where their when I wastak the photos.

Looks like
grating on the ramp maybe for swell when it comes in. The actual jetty looks like its all grated, waves were breaking over it when I was taking photos. Rocks either side of ramp, bit scary if a boat breaks lose.
Of course the seagulls have christianed the jetty hahahah

Hutch yes
the water around the ramp is still a bit milky from the limestone they have dumped, think winter storms they will have to dump more limestone, especially the right hand side of the ramp facing ocean.
Green Head ramp gets full of weed during the winter, knee deep in weed. Hope this new ramp fairs better but think it will also be covered in weed.

Not to sure Rob H
from the grapevine Sea Rescue started the ball rolling, then Corow Council got involved, could be both parties applied for the Royalties to Region, will dig further and find out for you.
Maybe when the ramp is officialy opened it will have all the info on it. The local rag the school prints didn't have any info on when the ramp would be opened.

thanks for update
i thought the original plan had a breakwater ?
cant see it being any different to the sea rescue ramp, other than being 2 sided
