What does it mean for canoers and kayakers?

23 September 2021

Canoers and kayakers will be required to wear a lifejacket when they are underway and also when paddling between sunset and sunrise, when on alpine waters or alone (without another person 12 years of age or more on the same vessel).

We have received feedback on the topic of paddle craft, particularly competitive racing and club-organised paddle events. The responses we have received will be considered as part of the consultation process.
