Queenstown Lakes District Council, in partnership with Maritime New Zealand and Coastguard, is offering a series of free safety education workshops to help people enjoy local lakes and rivers with confidence and care. The Ride Smart, Boat Safe workshops are designed for Jet skiers and small craft users of all experience levels, from first-time boaties to seasoned operators looking to refresh their skills. The workshops will combine theory with practical, on-water learning.
Each session covers essential safety theory, helping participants understand boating rules, responsibilities, and potential hazards. Alongside this, participants will receive guidance on trip planning and preparation to ensure safe, stress-free outings, as well as practical on-water skills training that provides hands-on experience with expert guidance.
To register for a free workshop, email [email protected] with your name, contact details, preferred session date, and the type of craft you use (for example, a jet ski or small powerboat).
Places are limited, so early registration is encouraged.
