Code of conduct on the river

Marine Safety Queensland has produced a code of conduct for unpowered craft on the Brisbane river. Please familiarise yourselves with it.

There have been a few recent near collisions so this code of conduct has been developed. Find it here.

The international regulations for preventing collisions at sea are here. See rule 8 – action to avoid a collision at sea.
