I thought there was a public boat ramp there, does it have a finger wharf? Does anyone use it?

its a bit of sand that that goes into a very tidal/swelly bay. Looks fairly difficult to navigate out of. Seen a few keen guys launch car toppers there.

You really need to choose your moment. Its limited to small tinnies with 4WD access and even then a low tide means you can chew the crap out of the prop.
The path to enter open water is dicey and you can easily smash your hull on rocks.
Its really not a proper ramp. It has nothing in the way of facility.
The limited trailer parking only bays are usually taken by people in cars only.
Your really limited to a 14ft tinnie that you can afford the odd scratch.
If the swell picks up on the retrieve waves fill the boat with water.
