Having more boat ramps developed would be a great tourism boost for the townsville region. That said more parking and better security also needs to be included. No one wants to return back to the boat ramp to find their car burgled or burnt to the ground.

Please at least give us a decent pontoon...we came in on a windy day and nearly had an serious accident. Will sue your arse off if it ever happens.

Townsville should be embarassed by the standard of ramps and parking provided. Boaties pay Rates as well you know. Security for vehicles left in car parks after launching is another area that requires attention.

The standard of public boat ramps, car and boat trailer parking and day/night security at those ramps has consistently been poor to well below standard (ie Brisbane) since I first started using those ramps in 1973. There are also insufficient ramps and it is long overdue problem and poor service that the Townsville City Council needs to fix now.

I now tow my boat from Townsville to Lucinda or Cardwell, as facillities there are far superior. I also fill up my boat and car there too, hence taking revenue away from my local economy.

Wake up Townsville City Council.

i belive that the number of parks at the coast gard ramp if no weare enougth. which is very odveious when there a cars with trailes parked right up near the Cry and sometimes even further. Also. the National park boat ramp on Ross River has a huge amount of room to have hundreds of car ramps but the lanes will also need to increase as the 2 or 3 that are there now just handle the small amount of avaliable parks that are offered.

I have recently moved to Townsville and after living in many states and areas of Australia are shocked at the inability of Townsville Boat Ramps to meet the needs of its citizens and visitors.

This is the worst I have seen any where. When you consider we pay a registration fee to cover our facilitys then we are being ripped off.

Its a pathetic thing when a Dad cant take his 4 children out fishing in their new boat because the facilities are woeful. There are nowehre near enough lanes or carparks or pontoons for the boating fraternity in Townsville. Last week on 3 attempts to go out with the children I turned back and didnt go. Cars and traliers were parked all the way down the street illegally and around near portifinos and beyond. Went to South Townsville and nearly had the car in the creek . Its Woeful.

I only started looking at this site because my geography assignement is based on the urban issue of the lack of adequate boating ramps and parking spaces for recreational fishers of Townsville. Finding all the facts and seeing whats happening in the world of the "boaties", i have been disgusted. The boaties pay so much for registration, petrol taxes and all that and still have to put up with crap boating infrastructure. i agree. enough is enough.
