As the majority of Australians are facing lockdown, the temptation to get out on the boat is palpable. Yet each state has its own way of managing boating during a lockdown so it is best to review the requirements before heading out.
If you are considering heading out on the boat then take 10 minutes to view you local state maritime authority as well as the Boating Industry Association’s website.
