Boating Guide Walpole to Denmark Marine Safety
Walpole to Denmark Boating GuideThe Walpole to Denmark Boating Guide covers an area along our south coast noted for large waves and unpredictable swell. Skippers need to prepare for all voyages by checking the weather and ensuring they log on.
Logging on and offSkippers are advised to log on and off with their nearest radio station every time they go out in their boat. Typically with a Volunteer Marine Rescue group, Australian Coast Radio Monitors (ACRM) base or Water Police. The idea being that you log on with a radio station and let them know who you are, where you are going, when you will arrive back and log off on your return.
Local Volunteer Marine Rescue groups are listed at the end of this brochure.
Boat ramp courtesy A good skipper plans for a day on the water and organises equipment, motors and mooring lines before leaving the boat ramp. Remember to:
• utilise designated rigging and de-rigging areas to avoidimpeding other people launching and retrieving vessels;
• follow the directions indicated by signage and or painted onthe roadway;
• utilise the correct lanes for launch and retrieval;
• move quickly to the end of the jetty giving room for otherpeople to launch and recover;
• have patience with other less experienced boaters; and
• read all information signs at boat ramps to familiariseyourself with the local area.
Recreational Skipper’s Ticket (RST)The person in charge of a recreational vessel with a motor of 6hp (4.5 kilowatts) or less is not required to hold a Recreational Skipper’s Ticket (RST).
A person in charge of a recreational vessel with a motor greater than 6hp (4.5 kilowatts) is required to hold an RST. You are required to carry your RST card with you when boating.
Age restrictionsA 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.
General speed limit restrictionsIt is illegal, in any navigable waters to drive a motor boat at a speed exceeding eight knots, water ski or para-sail:
• through an arch of a bridge;
• in or through a mooring area;
• in any water having a depth of less than 3 metres;
• within 15 metres of a vessel underway;
• within 50 metres of -
(i) a moored vessel;
(ii) a person in the water;
(iii) a jetty or wharf;
(iv) a river bank or low water mark.
Aids to navigationIt is illegal to interfere with, remove or damage any beacon, buoy or other artificial aid to navigation. Without permission in writing from the Department of Transport (DoT), it is illegal to secure any vessel to any beacon, buoy, seamark or other aid to navigation.
Obstruction of navigation aids, channels and leads Drop nets, fishing nets, marker buoys or other buoyed objects can not be placed or allowed to remain in any channel or fairway in any navigable waters except by permission of DoT.
You also can’t anchor or moor a vessel in any channel or fairway, unless the vessel is in distress.
Vessels less than 3.75 metresA person in charge of a vessel less than 3.75 metres in length is not allowed to travel greater than five nautical miles from the mainland shore.
However, you can operate the vessel within one nautical mile of an island located more than five nautical miles from the mainland shore.
Personal water craft (PWC)To operate a PWC at a speed greater than eight knots you must be at least 16 years of age and hold an RST.
Every person on board a PWC must wear a lifejacket at all times and at times carry safety equipment:
• Within 400 metres of the shore – either level 150, 100 or50/50s
• Between 400 metres and 2 n miles from shore – level 100or 150 only and carry an in date inshore distress flare kit
• Between 2 and 5 n miles – level 100 or 150 only and an indate inshore distress flare kit and EPIRB.
Freestyling and wake jumping is prohibited in the Wilson Inlet; except in the designated area:
• within any speed restricted area;
• within 30 metres of another PWC;
• within 50 metres of another vessel or person in the water.
PWC may operate when towing a water skier. When towing a water skier all vessels are required to carry an observer of at least 14 years of age. Observers must also wear a lifejacket.
PWC not engaged in water skiing must at all times remain well clear of the take-off and landing area and any vessels engaged in water skiing.
GPS validation markers GPS validation markers are unique visible marks placed at a number of public boat ramps and jetties where mariners and owners of portable GPS units can validate their position and map datum settings. The markers are available at Poddyshot, Denmark town ramps and are small, flat and yellow, similar to “cats eye” road lane markers.
Kite and windsurfingWith the onset of the sea breeze windsurfers and kitesurfers congregate at many popular locations. In certain conditions these small, fast moving sailing vessels may be difficult to see and skippers need to maintain a proper lookout at all times and take appropriate action to avoid collisions.
All windsurfers and kitesurfers have a duty of care to ensure their activities are conducted with regard to the prevailing conditions and circumstances and take appropriate action to avoid collisions.
Kite and windsurfers operating more than 400 metres from shore are required to carry safety equipment.
Paddle craftRecreational canoes, kayaks, surf skis, wave skis, inflatables or similar paddle craft must comply with WA marine laws including carriage of safety equipment. For more information visit www.transport.wa.gov.au/paddlecraft
Reduce washDamage to vessels, retaining walls and riverbanks can be caused by a vessel’s wash. Look behind you occasionally to make sure that your boat is not creating too much wash. If your wash is affecting other boats or property, slow down.
Ocean entrancesSiltation problems at the ocean entrances cause very dangerous conditions for boaters, with bars forming. Don’t risk crossing a bar unless you have local knowledge, experience and the right kind of boat. Wear a lifejacket while crossing a bar in any boat at any time.
