SW dams with boat access ? * new to FW*
G'day everyone. New to the site it's good to have finally signed up I have been going on here for quite a while. Have found some of the pics and knowledge here useful over the years and now may be able to contribute aswell. I love all forms of fishing, grew up fishing the perth metro LB and boat and have taken quite a few trips north including the abrolhos, montees and onslow
Also enjoy the more mellow forms of the sport and this weekend was hoping to give the tinny a freshwater flush in one of the dams along with some fishing for red fin. I was hoping on Wellington dam but it doesnt appear to have a ramp.. Does anyone know which fishable dams do have boat access and if there is a maximum HP motor you can legally use.
Any help much appreciated, Cheers

Wellington Dam is now open to
Wellington Dam is now open to power boats (& skiing) in a restricted area from the Potters Gorge campground across to near where the island is. The ski area is marked with bouys but outside that region there is a 5 knot speed limit. You can launch boats from a signposted area just down the road from the camping area road. You can also put motorised boats on Waroona, Glen Mervyn and Logue Brook Dams but at this time of year you have to launch them off the gravel banks. Given these dams allow water skiing there is no restrictions on the maximum HP allowed.
