The suggestion of putting in at the harbour is not a good one as the Port Captain does not allow skis in or out. THE NSRI slip at Huletts is a good launch point in that you can pretty much get out in all conditions. Coming in through the rocks at the Point must have been a bit tense - I would not like to try it unless the surf was small. People generally come in at the lifesaving clubhouse at Ashton Bay which has a blue roof which can be recognised from a distance. While this makes for a slightly shorter paddle the wind becomes side on shortly thereafter anyway. - Dale Lippstreu Mon, 14 Apr 2008 14:47:17 +0100
