Slips in Bognor/Littlehampton

Hi, I have had a look at boatlaunch.co.uk for slipways and there is one in Bognor and 2 in Littlehampton. One in Littlehampton, they launch for you, but would i be able to launch a 5.8m rib using my Passat on the Bognor or other Littlehampton slip?

Bognor slip is very busy and is a concrete ramp down to the sand so if the tides out you could be in deep ?
The Public slip at littlehampton can also be a bit dodgey busy and remember this is now the fastest flowing river in England The Arun.
The best slip is at Littleampton merina they launch for you and you can wash down when your finished.

Bognor are now charging £5 to launch, & £6 to park the car & they don't even suply a hose to wash down at the end of the day. Usualy very buisy with jetski's.
