25.01.2022 The Launching Way Precinct Master Plan of March 2017 is about boat launching facilities and the best way to ease congestion and improve facilities for boat owners and local residents. The Draft Patterson River Concept Plan May 2018 drifts so far away from this that as far as we are concerned this would add more congestion to the facility without improving amenity for anybody. We do not support any part of the Draft Plan for the lower precinct. Lynette and Trevor Hogan

24.01.2022 Well it’s May and it’s Mulloway madness down at Patterson River today. Brent decided to go for a fish with mate Don on a dreary afternoon and little did they know what was install! Both fish were caught within 1/2 hour of each other .... can’t take the smiles off their faces and these fish are on the menu tonight, delicious eating fish. Top effort guys, congratulations

23.01.2022 Jeremiah caught this 4.2kg snapper, his first ever snapper caught on whiting gear believe it or not!

23.01.2022 Amazing work by Murray, the memories are now where Muzza would have wanted them to be .... with his beloved Collingwood Football Club.

22.01.2022 DAILY HANSARD PROOF ONLY - DO NOT QUOTE *** Mr LIMBRICK (South Eastern Metropolitan) (17:33): I am pleased to speak to the ‘Extend Launching Way Boat Ramp Manag...ement Contract’ petition. I know that the tabling of petitions is not always the most exciting activity of this Parliament, but if the government does not pay urgent attention to this, this could get very exciting for you very quickly. In only one week this petition has garnered 1270 signatures. Unless you extend the contract very soon, those 1270 people and thousands more people who travel to Australia’s busiest boat ramp will never vote Labor again. The government might not appreciate this immediately, but I am doing you guys a solid favour by giving you one last chance to defuse a ticking time bomb. Before I explain all of this, I need to give you some background. By all reports, fish stocks in Port Phillip Bay are well managed. There are plenty of fish to go around for recreational anglers, although they are safe from me because I am really terrible at fishing. But those who know tell me that there are lots of whiting, snapper, flathead and squid for the taking. Now even game fish are being caught in Victorian waters for the first time in many years. People travel from across Victoria to use the boat ramp at Patterson River in Carrum, which is the only ramp protected from open water on the bay. Up to 900 boats a day are launched from it. Two of the nicest people you will ever meet, Trevor and Lynette Hogan, operate Previous DocumentLaunchingwayNext Document. They have safely managed the boat ramp from the nearby bait shop every day except Christmas for the last 25 years. Trevor and Lynette and their employees are known in the boating community as the patron saints of lost boaters. Trevor can tell many tales of fights he has broken up at the boat ramp. He even tells the story of breaking up a fight between two blokes who came back the next weekend as good mates on one boat. Lynette can tell you how lonely locals come in and just have a yarn. They can explain in great detail how difficult it is to manage traffic at the boat ramp on a busy day, which starts at 2 in the morning. If you talk to them, you will discover this is a complex task. That is not to mention the several charter operators that use the ramp and the Hogans’ organisation of the Mates Day on the Bay to give disabled people a boating experience. The Hogans are like the boating community’s answer to Bondi Rescue. They are not only integral to the safe and efficient running of Australia’s busiest boat ramp; they are the heart and soul of the place. The boaters know this, which explains why so many of them signed the petition in a few days. Last August, Trevor and Lynette received notice that they are being evictedat the end of this month. They were not consulted and there was no adequate explanation. The lack of consultation means that the government has absolutely no idea about the chaos about to be unleashed when the ramp gets busy at Easter and in the summer months. This petition is not just a plea from 1270 people; it is a warning to the government. I commend it to the house.

21.01.2022 How low can they go, using this picture from 7 months ago which is currently being circulated around hundreds of houses in Frankston/Carrum/Seaford area in a Labour Community Newsletter on behalf of Peta Murphy MP !!! The disappointing point is we have no backing at all from these people

17.01.2022 Launching Way is the largest capacity and most efficient boat launching facility in Victoria and arguably Australia yet the Draft Patterson River Concept Plan seems to ignore this important point! Boating Industry Association of Victoria Launchingway Pty Ltd

17.01.2022 Since launching on 25 March, we’ve been working hard to make boating easier, safer and cheaper in Victoria. It’s an ambitious and complex program of work that... includes scrapping fees at all Victoria public boat ramps, investing every dollar of boat licence and rego fees into improving boating infrastructure and safety, establishing a Better Boating fund, reviewing management of boating infrastructure in Port Phillip and Western Port, providing eight new casual berths at across Port Phillip and setting up a Better Boating stakeholder reference group to help us further refine and implement our commitments. Our first priority is scrapping fees. We want to make this happen as fast as possible and we’re talking to land managers now about measures to make it happen by spring. Want to know more? Then listen to what Minister for Fishing and Boating Jaala Pulford MP has to say here: https://go.vic.gov.au/mJL4kw

16.01.2022 Yesterday afternoon our great mate Murray Swinton took his last breath after being diagnosed with MND in January this year. Murray’s infection humour, passion and presence will be missed around the ramp by all who were lucky enough to have met him. Deepest sympathy to Tracie, Nick & Mitch. Vale, Murray
