Coasties please help, deepest Lake Macquarie Ramp

Hi All.

Im looking at taking out my 25foot contessa (1.25m draft, i believe) which is moored at chain valley bay. Hoping another Coastie has any knowledge for the ramps around the lake, i believe i need 2m of water to fit the yacht onto the trailer ( trailer 70cm clearance required). The trailer is set for a keel yacht, i have plenty of things to consider but i feel the dept of the ramp is the biggest issue. Im looking at Mannering park going to measure the dept, it also has a jetty which is going to be helpful. Any local knowledge will be helpful. Perhaps a deeper ramp w a jetty ???
Cheers
Brian

I think the one at Styles point would be pretty deep, it used to be a slipway. There's a jetty too.
