With the start of the summer season, water lovers and boaties are asked to brush up on safety precautions including servicing their lifejackets, safety equipment and understanding speed limits.

For those looking to head out on the river for the first time since flood restrictions lifted, Marine Safety Officers and South Australia Police have listed the top priorities for this boating season.

Speeding
Safety equipment

Our crews have been working around the clock for the past few months following the River Murray floods to survey the river, marking or removing hazards and debris but it’s an ongoing exercise so we are asking everyone on the river this summer to be mindful of hazards that may still emerge.
In this segment, we hear from Gordon Panton, Manager Marine Safety and Compliance and Simon Schwerdt, Unit Manager, Boating Safety and Compliance.
