Western Australian Powered Water Sports Area (WAPWSA)

Recreational canoes, kayaks, surf skis, inflatables or similar paddle craft that are propelled by a person using a paddle must comply with WA marine laws. Visit our website for more information.

Paddle Safe

Most ski areas will also have a pictorial sign describing the rules and regulations that are particular to the area i.e. must ski in an anti clockwise direction.

Kite and windsurfers operating more than 400 metres from shore in unprotected waters must carry safety equipment. Visit our website for more information.

All windsurfers and kitesurfers have a duty of care to ensure their activities are conducted with regard to the prevailing conditions and circumstances and to avoid collisions.

This area is reserved for the use of motorised aquatic events approved by the Department of Transport. The area is closed at all times to all vessels (including paddle craft) unless approved by the Department of Transport.

• collision rules still apply in ski areas. This means a ski boat has no priority over a boat that is passing through the area.

Kite Safe

Lilac Hill water ski area: This area is set aside for the use of members of the Barefoot Division of the Western Australian Water Ski Association only.

• in the Swan and Canning Riverpark except in the gazetted freestyle area downstream of the Narrows Bridge.

RST skills recognition and equivalents If you hold a qualification from another state or country that is equivalent to the RST, or have a commercial certificate of competency, you may be eligible for exemption from the RST assessment and can receive an RST through skills recognition. For more information visit our website - www.transport.wa.gov.au/rst

• deep water take-offs only, except in ski take-off areas; and

General ski area information In the Swan Canning Riverpark, you may only ski within gazetted ski areas and between times allowed for that area. Ski areas are marked by signs on the foreshore and some also have their boundaries marked by buoys in the water.

Once you pass, the RST provider will issue you an RST Interim Certificate. Your RST card will be sent to you through the mail, once your details have been received and processed by the Department of Transport (DoT).

Closed waters areas

• within 50 metres of another vessel or person in the water; and

• a motor boat can’t tow a skier between sundown and 8am in the waters of the Swan River or before 9am and after sunset in the waters of the Canning River;

How to get an RST If you would like to get a RST you will need to pass an assessment delivered by an RST provider. The RST provider may also conduct training, but this is not compulsory. You can choose to study on your own, using the RST Workbook, and take the assessment only.

• within 30 metres of another PWC;

The rules that apply to power boats also apply to boats towing skiers. There are also some extra rules:

Age restrictions A person under 10 years may not drive a motor boat. RST holders over 14 but under 16 years of age are restricted to operating during daylight hours at a speed less than 8 knots.

Distance from shore Stay at least 50 metres (or as gazetted) from shore except when landing or taking-off a skier in a gazetted take-off and landing area.

Motorised Vessels: All designated waters at Maylands, Cracknell Park, Ascot, Point Reserve, Freshwater Bay and Preston Point (refer map) are closed to motorised vessels.

Wave and wake jumping is driving a PWC over a wave or swell with the aim of becoming airborne. The wave or the swell may be formed naturally or by the passage of a vessel. Freestyling and wake jumping is prohibited:

Trick skiing Trick skiing is prohibited within 100 metres of any take-off and landing areas.

Crab drop nets

Freestyling, wake and wave jumping Freestyling is operating a PWC in a way that the skipper of another vessel would be unable to predict its course or speed in order to avoid a collision, this includes doughnuts,180 degree turns, hops and jumps etc.

Distance behind a skier You must not drive any closer than 50 metres directly behind a skier or any other boat.

Fairways and channels: The placement of crab drop nets in fairways and channels is prohibited without approval of the Department.

• PWCs greater than 3.75m traveling beyond 5 nautical miles of the shore must also carry, in addition to the above, a marine radio and two in date parachute distress flares.

Beach take off and landings are only permitted in the designated take-off and landing areas.

E RO

• between 2 and 5 nautical miles a lifejacket Level 100 or 150 must be worn. An in date inshore distress flare kit and an in date, registered EPIRB must also be carried. Note – PWCs less than 3.75 metres in length shall not travel greater than 5 nautical miles from the mainland or 1 nautical mile from any island greater than 5 nautical miles from the mainland.

• Only anchor in areas clear of seagrass and never tie up to shoreline trees. Use the red courtesy moorings provided by Parks and Wildlife. Courtesy mooring locations are shown in this boating guide, but remember there is a four hour limit between 7am and 7pm. Careless mooring and tying up to trees damages shoreline and riverbed vegetation.

ET RE

• Take your rubbish with you. Store it on board and dispose of it properly in bins or take it home. Litter destroys the scenic beauty of the Riverpark, plastic can injure wildlife and broken glass is a hazard.

WIL

Dred ged Men to 1.5 m ds St Chan etres nel

ROAD

• Always take care to avoid disturbing wildlife. Travelling at high speed in the Riverpark stresses birds and interferes with their feeding activities. Four-wheel drives can damage foreshore vegetation, so leave your vehicle on the road and protect wildlife habitat.

POINT

• Make sure fuel and oil never go into the rivers by keeping your engine serviced. Install and regularly change an oil absorbent bilge mat. Refuel carefully and clean up any spillages. This will save you money and protect the Riverpark’s health. Fuel and oil can harm or kill aquatic plants and animals.

• Launch and retrieve your boat, tenders or other watercraft without disturbing riverside vegetation or damaging riverbanks. Boats may only be launched from trailers at the boat ramps shown in this Boating Guide. Riverside plants play an important part in keeping the Riverpark healthy. They provide shelter for native wildlife, prevent erosion and help keep river banks stable. Riverside plants help filter out the nutrients that can trigger algal blooms.

STREET

VICTORIA PARK

• Prevent antifouling and cleaning agents, paint, solvents and other chemicals from polluting the Riverpark. Make sure you only undertake boat maintenance in areas where harmful residues can be collected and disposed of properly.

DO UG LA S

• Take home your tenders, dinghies and boats or use an approved storage facility. Leaving vessels on the foreshore can damage vegetation and prevent access to shorelines.

Boating Weather Forecast Boating Weather: 1900 955 350 Website: www.bom.gov.au/marine

PERTH

• Take care to minimise your boatwash. Wash can damage shorelines, injure people, disturb nesting and feeding birds, damage moored boats and interfere with other people’s enjoyment of the Riverpark.
