You could at the right tide
You could at the right tide but in the wrong tide you may be stuck in ankle deep water for 200m.

boat launch ok
Beach launch at prickly point (where the dongas are) is ok, you'd get a 6m ali in there. I've put a 6.4 trailcraft in there before. The bigger issue was the guards and winch post snapping off the trailer on the way in due to the corrugations! Spent a day at the homestead using their welder to repair, lucky was travelling with a boiler maker. Last few years road in has been pretty good though and almost half the way in is sealed now from memory?? Cracking spot though.

Tamala
I camped at tents landing as it has a natural boat ramp but I was using my Jetski and it was fine just got to think how much draught you require as it is very shallow in areas

Just got back from Tamala,
Just got back from Tamala, stayed on Shell Beach. Should be ok with the 6.3m. Some parts of the beach are firmer than others but im pretty sure there was an actual ramp at the southern end. Plenty of Pinks around but have to sift through the smaller fish to find the keepers.
