The new Mahers Landing boat ramp is looking pretty impressive! Raised up on metal piles and large concrete supports called headstocks, the ramp will provide access to deeper water. It will include a guardrail for safety and a jetty alongside to improve access to boats.
Upgrade plans for Inverloch boat ramp are progressing with work on a new jetty to start in September. The $2m project is expected to kick off in September after a tender was awarded last week by project manager Bass Coast Shire Council.
Improvements to the jetty at Indented Head boat ramp are underway, funded by your boating licence and registration fees. The ramp is expected to be closed for the next 3 weeks while decking, capping and walers are replaced.

Upgrades at St Leonards boat ramp are approaching with a tender awarded for stage one of the project and crews from Bridgewater Marine planning to begin at the end of next month. The work will see a full rebuild of the jetty at the ramp with an extended T section.
Dredging’s underway at Rye boat ramp to provide better access for boaters on the peninsula. Thanks to your boating rego and licence fees, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council scored a $250,000 grant to dredge at Rye and Mornington’s Fishermans Beach.
Progress at Mahers Landing is really stacking up. Piling is complete and the ramp itself is taking shape, with concrete headstocks placed upon the piles. Concrete ramp panels will be added to the structure over the next fortnight.
If you’re keen for an early start on the water or the fish have been biting after dark, solar lights at the ramp can be very handy indeed! Whether they’re big overhead lights or smaller ones on a jetty or pontoon, solar lighting is a common feature of many upgrades.
If the tide’s out and the jetty is perched above your boat, ladders like this are essential. We go with galvanized steel to avoid corrosion, the grooves on the surface mean they’re grippy and the loops give you something to hold onto on the way up or down.
While at the Apex Park boat ramp over the recent long weekend, we ran into Jason who’s a regular at the ramp. We recently installed an all-abilities pontoon, which is providing better access and more capacity at peak periods. Jason said the new pontoon’s been a valuable upgrade.
The new Bulmer Street jetty in the heart of at Lakes Entrance is proving a hit with locals and visitors. We ran into Steven and Janita over the weekend, a couple of locals who say it’s been a handy addition. Check out our Gippsland boating trail at betterboating.vic.gov.au/boating-trails/
Ever seen this gravel and plastic combo in a boat ramp carpark and wondered why it’s used? For parking areas close to the water, it’s the best way to minimise stormwater runoff. Its strength and durability means it’ll stand the test of time while being good for the environment.
There’s more access improvements on the way at Port Fairy with dredging happening along the Moyne River. The project’s thanks to $190,000 through the Better Boating Fund and local ports program, funded by the Department of Transport and Planning.
Here’s a great view of upgrades at Mahers Landing thanks to Bass Coast Shire Council. Construction crews will begin on the expanded parking area next Monday, 11 March. This means the carpark, toilet block, old ramp and new ramp and jetty will all be unavailable until mid-year.
If you’re a die-hard boater always looking at your next opportunity to hit the water, chances are you already know and love the Boating Vic app. Best part is it’s all free. Download it via the App Store or Google Play, or head to boating.vic.gov.au on your browser.
If you’ve launched at a ramp this summer and wondered what these are – they're gangway gradient indicators. The blue zone shows the optimal gradient of 1:14 or shallower. The red sections show when the gradient is steeper than the ideal range, when assistance may be required
Plans have been finalised for a new accessible pontoon at Blue Rock Lake. The pontoon will feature a new gangway which is wheelchair accessible, a wider landing area toward the end of the structure, a seat and a hoist to lift boaters in and out of their craft.
Catastrophic and extreme fire danger conditions are forecast for parts of the state tomorrow. People in these areas should leave early – leave tonight (Tuesday 27 February) or before midday tomorrow (Wednesday 28 February). More info: emergency.vic.gov.au/news-and-media…
Chris 📸 came to our drop-in session in Seymour to chat about plans for the Lions Park boat ramp. He and dad Don even launched for a quick arvo fish. Chris said it could do with a longer breakwall and better access via the jetty - we'll incorporate that input into our planning.
