The Canoe Trail Friends have on going consultations with paddlers, canoe clubs, government agencies and developers to establish non-powered launch sites
River Trails: The Peel Trails Group in conjunction with the City of Mandurah and Shire of Murray has received a grant to design, manufacture and install canoe trail head signs at the following canoe launch sites: Pinjarra Boat Ramp; Ravenswood; Furnissdale; Riverside Gardens and Western Foreshore. These signs will complement canoe guides and further enhance paddling facilities
Disabled launch site: We have initiated consultation, to see if there is a need for a disabled launch site or sites.
Batavia Quays South Yunderup: The Friends are pleased that money has now been received to upgrade the boat ramp here, including the non-powered site. The Friends supported the Shire of Murray with this upgrade. To cater for the needs of paddlers, we have had input into the detailed planning of launch site location and car parking requirements
Furnissdale: As there may be a revision of all boating facilities at Furnissdale, because of the Review of Furnissdale Structure Plan, The Friends have put forward their requirements for non-powered sites
Murray Bend: Following a request from The Friends, the Shire of Murray has placed sand between the boat ramp and private jetty
Point Grey: The Friends have submitted the locations of two non- powered launch sites to the Shire of Murray via the Point Grey Outline Development Plan
Ravenswood: A launch site has been established opposite the Ravenswood Hotel All credit and appreciation goes to the Shire of Murray, in partnership with Mandurah- Murray Vietnam Veterans Canoeing Group The Shire excavated the site and the MMVVCG carried out the construction work
Rivergum Esplanade South Yunderup: The Friends are supporting the Shire of Murray in its quest to establish a designated launch site at this location
