St Leonards boat ramp is upgraded and open.
Thanks to your boating licence and rego fees the jetty has been rebuilt with wave screens installed to make launching and retrieving easier.
The end T-section is now twice as wide at 40 metres across, with wave screens added to provide protection from northerly and easterly winds and wave action. 
The screens across the end of the T-shaped jetty are made of reinforced concrete, while those on the long section extending out from the ramp are made of super strong high-density plastic with a metal backing.
A new non-slip deck, additional rubber fenders, cleats to tie ropes to and solar lighting are also in place to make it easy to head out night or day and to protect your pride and joy.
A new accessible gangway and lower landing on the northern side will make boarding vessels easier for people of all ability levels, with stairs leading to another lower landing on the opposite side of the structure.
Early 2025 will see a hoist added to the accessible pontoon, seating installed on the jetty and minor concreting works, but ramp access is expected to be maintained.
We’re continuing to work on designs for future boat ramp upgrades at St Leonards to expand capacity and increase efficiency, subject to funding.
