I feel it'd only be doable in zero wind and if planning to row out and in (or use trolling motor) . I couldn't even get my motor trimmed to just touch the surface to get us out.... Had to use our trolling motor at surface level. Previously, even if I was just scratching the surface with the outboard trim, it would still hit bottom and damage the prop on larger pieces of sand and such, so this time I didn't even try with outboard. The likelihood of costly damage is significant. Next time we'll launch at west Cove.... Looks better from there. Anyways hope that helps
