Ramp Infrastructure & Facility Report
Location: Southern shore of Anderson Inlet, off Mahers Landing Road, Mahers Landing. Designed to resolve historical flat-gradient launching limitations, this upgraded facility is subject to Anderson Inlet's strong tidal currents, shifting channels, and restricted speed zones (10 knots upstream, dropping to 5 knots at night near the ramp). This newly upgraded dual-lane concrete boat ramp extends 80 metres into the channel to provide all-tide launching, alongside a tiered fixed jetty designed for DDA compliance with tiered horizontal landings (Landings 1 to 5). Landside infrastructure has been modernised to include an asphalt carpark with 55 car-trailer spaces, 5 car spaces, 2 DDA accessible spaces, and 2 dedicated rigging and waiting lanes. It features sand trap infiltration swales to filter stormwater runoff and prevent contaminants from reaching the intertidal zone. The facility is managed by the Bass Coast Shire Council.
Pre-Launch Fuel & Donut Defense
Wasting $150 on fuel and fresh bait to run into dead water is an embarrassing donut. Strike Club translates local water flow, tidal turnaround, and atmospheric pressure into one simple call: If it is green, hook up the trailer. If it is red, stay in bed.
