City of Cockburn – Boat Launching Facilities
Information on Woodman Point boat ramp facilities, including tide charts, ramp conditions, and parking regulations for trailer boats in Cockburn waters.




Cockburn Sound’s nutrient levels and industrial proximity mean boats typically need more frequent hull cleaning than in pristine waters. We usually recommend hull cleaning every 4-6 weeks during warmer months when algae growth is most active, compared to 6-8 weeks in cleaner waters.
Yes, many Cockburn homes have boat storage on larger residential blocks, and we bring all necessary equipment including our own water supply. We work efficiently in driveways and side yards while being mindful of neighbors and council guidelines.
We coordinate with Woodman Point and other local ramps during optimal tide windows. For detailed work, we typically arrange service at your home or storage location where we have better access and aren’t limited by tidal timing or ramp traffic.
