spudman Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Hi All I'm moving from Coffs to Nambucca in a few months and wondering about places to head offshore in my 610 quinnie trident safely, or am i better off still towing it to Coffs to head offshore? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirvin21 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I grew uo in Nambucca, now located at port macquarie You can beach launch at shelly beach and scotts head There's a decent ramp at the golf club, RSL and Gordon park but the bar crossing can be very sketchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoods Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Scotts Head is popular the ramp iss in the corner of the beach past the Van Park - limited parking. Shallow protected corner but no Bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudman Posted February 10, 2022 Author Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) Which be would be better with a 6 metre hardtop boat? Would I be able to launch from the beach at Shelly or scotts head in a boat that size?

grandad Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 I have seen boats cross the bars at Nambucca and also Urunga, Both have good ramps. and dangerous bars. I holidayed at Valla Beach for many years, but towed my boat to Coffs Harbour to launch, much safer to drive 45 minutes than cross those bars. I used to watch the Tractor launching boats at Shelly beach, still not an easy launch, Stay safe, Launch at Coffs. Grandad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
