Hi, I have been asked to use my 6mtrailcraft as a support vessel for this years swim. Can someone tell me where the best place to launch would be?

That is exactly my concern. have you had any replies Durack? There will be 900 support boats I believe and I can imagine the public boat ramp at East Fremantle will be a zoo.

East Fremantle boat ramp will most definitely be a mad house and there is no chance of avoiding a parking ticket unless you are in a proper parking bay.
You will need to be extremely early to get a spot there. Where are you coming from? Approximately 5nm upstream the next boat ramp is Point Walter. That's where you will be sent when east Fremantle is full.

That is my main worry. Durack, have you heard back from anyone yet? I estimate that there will be around 900 support boats, therefore the public boat ramp in East Fremantle will likely be a zoo.

Hello,

Thanks for the advice. Point Walter seems like an interesting alternative to keep in mind.
