Sail responsibly: Safeguard our waters

How can we make a positive impact?

To ensure we are taking responsible actions towards preserving our precious waters, we have identified six key initiatives for you to follow when you are out on the water. By working together and committing to these practices, we can move towards a more sustainable and environmentally-conscious path.

1. Respect marine habitats by being mindful of the homes we share and avoiding protected areas.
2. Show care for the wildlife that calls the water home; approach marine wildlife with caution, maintain a safe distance and minimise disruption to their environment.
3. Anchor responsibly by steering clear of protected sea beds and other sensitive areas.
4. Take steps to prevent water pollution by making responsible choices; avoid dumping any chemicals into the water and take measures to prevent engine leaks.
5. Embrace waste reduction and recycling; dispose of waste properly and recycle whenever possible.
6. We invite you to take The Green Blue boating pledge and commit to environmentally friendly practices.
