...is to boof straight off and land on the downstream outflow.

Because there's a rock on your right at lip, I place my boof stroke on the left,  but I keep it a neutral boof stroke (I don't let it turn me to the left or right). Keeping it neutral at Tower's lip means that my boof stroke doesn't turn me to the right (and onto the rock just right of the landing zone).

It's about as straightforward a ledge boof as you get on the RF, and it has a nice lip to grab with your paddle. If you have a reliable boof, you should give it a go.
