Ricketts Point

There are a couple of different spots that people refer to as "Ricketts Point '

There is Beaumaris Yacht Club ( Ricketts point north) . This works great in a Southerly or Sth Westerly . There there is a reef that runs full width of the beach with a smallish gap in the middle marked by posts . High tide you can sail over the reef in most places but in low tide it is very tricky and you need to know where the rocks are . I would suggest not sailing here without talking to a local first and getting them to point out where and where not to go .
The other main place is what I usually refer to as Ricketts Point , which is the beach at the end of Dalgetty Road next to the Beaumaris Life saving club . This is the spot in a Easterly or Sth easterly and a true Westerly . In a Westerly it is really one of the best spots on the Bay . The Reef here runs out on the Nothern end of the beach then hooks around and runs across the beach a few hundred meters offshore . In a westerly you get fairly flat water inside and then hit the waves breaking on the reef . It's sweet . Pretty safe in high tide unless you venture too far north , a good rule is not sail further north than the no boating mark in front of the life saving club . In low tide you have to be a bit more careful of the section of offshore reef that hooks around , but it is pretty vissable so just stear clear of the breaking waves .
Both top spots , just talk to a regular first and you will be fine .

Looking at the forecast i think we will all be there tonight, tommorrow and sunday!
Just follow everyone else!!
