Boat launch closed

The boat launch at Okanagan Centre Safe Harbour Regional Park has been closed.

The Central Okanagan Regional District decided to close the launch in Lake Country because one of the concrete pads is broken and there is exposed rebar.

“It’s not safe for use,” said Bruce Smith, communications co-ordinator.

“Until environmental approvals are received and the repairs are complete, people with smaller boats and trailers may choose to use the area to the south of the closed boat launch. Because of the low lake water level anyone with a large boat should not use the safe harbour to launch.”

An alternative launch site for large boats is at Coral Beach in Carr’s Landing.
