Navigation lightsAll vessels underway during the hours of sunset to sunrise must display navigation ligths appropriate to the particular size and type of vessel. For further information please visit our website or call 1300 863 308.
Diving flag Any boat with divers operating from it must always display signals by day or night to alert other boat users. The daytime signal for divers is an International Code Flag “A”. The flag must be at least 750mm long and 600mm wide.
Divers operating without a vessel, for example from a jetty, must also display the International Code Flag “A”. The flag must be at least 750mm long and 600mm wide.
Divers not operating from a vessel or jetty can display a flag from a buoy. If displayed from a buoy, the flag must not be less than 300mm long and 200mm wide.
The flag must be clearly visible to all vessels operating in the vicinity.
Windsurfing and kitesurfingWith the onset of the sea breeze windsurfers and kitesurfers congregate at many popular locations. In certain conditions these small, fast moving sailing vessels may be difficult to see and people navigating the coast need to maintain a proper lookout at all times and take appropriate action to avoid collisions.
Safety equipmentKite and windsurfers operating more than 400 metres from shore are now required to carry safety equipment. For further information visit our website or call 13 11 56.
Prevention of collision All windsurfers and kitesurfers have a duty of care to ensure their activities are conducted with regard to the prevailing conditions and circumstances and take appropriate action to avoid collisions.
Paddle CraftRecreational canoes, kayaks, surf skis, wave skis, inflatables or similar paddle craft that are propelled by a person using a paddle must comply with WA marine laws. To get a brochure and sticker about the rules call 13 11 56 or visit our website.
Obstruction of navigation aids, channels and leads Drop nets, fishing nets, marker buoys or other buoyed objects cannot be placed or allowed to remain in any channel or fairway in any port or harbour, or in any channel, fairway or passage in any navigable waters without the permission of DoT.
Also, you can’t anchor or moor a vessel in any channel or fairway, unless the vessel is in distress.
Vessel registrationMost boats or yachts must be registered with DoT and an annual registration fee is payable.
Vessels that must be registeredIf your boat has a motor, or is fitted for one, it must be registered and is subject to an annual registration fee. Yachts, canoes, surf skis and other craft not fitted for a motor, are not required to be registered.
Transfer of ownershipYou must advise DoT on the sale (within 7 days) or the acquisition (within 15 days) of any power driven vessel.
General speed limit restrictionsIt is illegal, in any navigable waters, to drive a motor boat at a speed exceeding eight knots, water ski or para-sail:
• through an arch of a bridge;
• in or through a mooring area;
• within 15 metres of a vessel underway;
• within 50 metres of –
(i) a moored vessel;
(ii) a person in the water;
(iii) a jetty or wharf;
(iv) a river bank or low water mark.
GPS validation markers Global Positioning System (GPS) validation markers are unique visible marks placed at a number of public boat ramps and jetties where mariners and owners of portable GPS units can validate their position and map datum settings. The markers are small, flat and yellow, similar to ‘cats eye’ road lane markers. For further information please visit our website or call 13 11 56.
Personal water craft (PWC)To operate a personal water craft (PWC) at a speed greater than 8 knots you must be at least 16 years of age and hold an RST.
Every person on board a PWC must wear a lifejacket at all times and at times carry safety equipment:
• Within 400 metres of the shore – lifejacket Level 150, 100 or50/50s
• Between 400 metres and 2 nm from shore – lifejacket Level 100or 150 only and an in date inshore distress flare kit
• Between 2 and 5 nm – level 100 or 150 only and an in dateinshore distress flare kit and emergency position indicating radiobeacon (EPIRB).
Freestyling and wake jumping is:
• within any speed restricted area;
• within 30 metres of another PWC;
• within 50 metres of another vessel or person in the water.
PWC may operate when towing a water skier. When towing a water skier all vessels are required to carry an observer of at least 14 years of age. Observers must also wear a lifejacket.
PWC not engaged in water skiing must at all times remain well clear of the take off and landing area and any vessels engaged in water skiing.
Recreational Skipper’s TicketThe person in charge of a recreational vessel with a motor of 6hp (4.5 kilowatts) or less is not required to hold a Recreational Skipper’s Ticket (RST).
A person in charge of a recreational vessel with a motor greater than 6hp (4.5 kilowatts) is required to hold an RST.
You are required to carry your RST card when boating.
Age restrictionsA person under 10 years may not drive a motor boat.
RST holders over 14 but under 16 years of age are restricted to operating during daylight hours at a speed less than 8 knots.

WARNING - Tropical cyclone region
The north west of Western Australia experiences more severe cyclones than any other part of the Australian coastline and is one of the most cyclone-prone coasts anywhere in the world. The cyclone season extends from November through to April, but most coastal impacts occur in the period from January to March.
Please refer to the Carnarvon/shark bay Cyclone Contingency Plan that DoT activates during cyclones which is available along with a range of other DoT cyclone plans on the web site: www.transport.wa.gov.au/imarine
