yes dave it's nice and deep compared to mooloolaba it's dredged so its not a bar but a seaway just with a big swell and a strong outgoing tide it can be a bit hairy, looking at the long range forecast it will be flat so i'm definately getting outside over the weekend

woohoo

Just been looking at the Gold Coast Seaaway on the surfcam it looks pretty easy and flat, is it usually this way when the weather is good? :whistle:

In 3 years I have only seen the seaway really bad a handfull of times, but it gets bad. The swell gets big and its still ok inside, but when the breakers are right accross its lethal.

Thats it Tugger starting to pack now the missus (Carol) is also coming too. I think we will be putting in at the Rudy Maas ramp as I've been advised its really secure there, when we anchor off at night on the Northen end of the island do you need a tender to get back to the boat?:unsure:

Hi Mark are you able to beach bigger boats there, and Davey I will have my inflatable there for the kids to play with during the day you can use to get to your boat in the night as we will be tenting it.

have you guys used this ramp - http://www.nearmap.com/?q=@-27.877759,153.393852&ll=-27.877759,153.393852&z=20&t=h&nmd=20100720

I wanted a ramp a little bit away from the race. Is there a better ramp?

There is a few small ramps, one is opposite Kurrajong Avenue or Constance Esp or Ray st or Marine Parade, Ted you might be able to do the IT bit and pinpoint on the map, but they are all in the Runaway bay area.
