🚤☀️ Most people think summer is the best time for boating... but I'd argue winter has it beat.
Yesterday we spent the day at Pelican Waters Marina with Maritime Safety Queensland filming some content around safe boating this winter.
The reality is that winter often delivers some of the best boating conditions of the year. Sunny days, lighter winds, comfortable temperatures and fewer boats at your favourite anchorages make it a fantastic time to get out and enjoy our waterways.
Before you cast off, take a few moments to:
✅ Plan your trip
✅ Check the weather and conditions
✅ Make sure your safety gear is onboard and up to date
✅ Know the rules on the water
A small amount of preparation goes a long way towards ensuring a safe and enjoyable day on the water with family and friends.
A huge shout out to Pelican Waters Marina for putting this initiative together and investing in promoting safe boating practices. It's great to see the marina leading from the front and encouraging more people to enjoy the water safely.
And a special thanks to our marketing partners at Allies Management. The team consistently produces outstanding work and helps deliver the best marketing outcomes for our clients every day. We're fortunate to have such a talented and passionate group supporting initiatives like this. 👏
Now all we need is a sunny weekend, a full fuel tank and a destination in mind! ⚓🌊
