Jetty, Dinghy Racks, Oar Store, and Water Taxi.

We have a floating pontoon jetty which provides clean, dry access to the creek at all but the lowest of spring tides

We provide launching trolleys for tenders and barrows to help loading your boats.

Tenders should always be kept clear of the hammerhead end of the jetty at all but the lowest of tides and clear of the launching ramp at all times.  

Fresh water is on tap at the end of the jetty on a 15 minute timer activated by a pushbutton on the eastern end of the clubhouse wall facing the dinghy racks.

Dinghy racks

There are a number of Dinghy storage racks on the pontoon and at the side and behind the clubhouse. Spaces occasionally become available  -- contact the club secretary.

Oar Store

We have an Oar Store, for the convenience of members, adjacent to the club house (keys available for a small charge from the Steward)
