Boat launches

[Geoffrey James]

hey guys. i just had a quick question about some of the other boatlaunches in the area. i use ambleside and if the tide gets too low, there is no way i can launch or retrieve my boat. What about
horseshoe Bay, or Lions Bay. i want to head out in the bowen island area anyway... any thoughts there fella's?

Horseshoe Bay is a lot like Ambleside at low tide, I would go to Lions bay, better launch.

Where do you live and how big is your boat?

Do what I did-By a 4x4 so you can back your trailer into deep enough water and be able to pull it out!

Sunset Marina. Phone first just to be sure but it's close to Bowen
and not too many weekend warriors.

Sunset is fine for all tides, but they probbly want $20 or more.
Cates park is another option, but it's farther away.
Ambleside is fine as long as you time the tides (and the crowds) properly. And it's free! [8D]
