Mate, that's nice work
Don't suppose you could bring the ramp to Flatrocks. If the fishing's no good we could have a bit of fun on that.

The rod holder looks sweet
The rod holder looks sweet and your ramps coming along great theres a member on this site that doubts your ramp but i reckon we test it out by sending a kayak up his arse because im certain that hes dribbled all the shit out CHEERS SHAG
