Odyssey Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 https://www.rya.org.uk/news/2023/01/20/rya-welcomes-new-watercraft-legislation-2023 a couple of months ago legislation was passed tgst now means from today that PWC are now subject to same rules and regulations as boats/yachts. So basically PWC are now subject to the Col Regs that everyone else have to. Hopefully a good move to keep everyone safe Malc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malc Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 "The new law introduces a definition for watercraft which applies to any craft capable of moving under its own mechanical power." That means me too I suppose. Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely to be my heart that limits my speed 😁 I can do 3-4kn all day long but just upping that to 5-6 is tiring, locally its 6kn until you pass the inner piers and then it's open it up and that's what the willy wavers do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
