Your Harbour,


Your Estuary Needs You! While you may have a small impact on our planet … there are a lot of us!


Here are some simple things that will make a massive difference when we all try.


Avoid saltmarshes


where possible - paddlers should take care when launching over or from sensitive shores


Cigarette butts are


plastic & toxic to aquatic life - Bin the Butt!


Only ever


the 4p’s down the Loo – Pee, Poo, Puke & Paper


Be aware of sensitive shore and seabed


communities – these are our carbon sinks – cross, paddle, motor and anchor carefully


Leave nothing


Be part of


the BioSecurity solution “CHECK – CLEAN – DRY”


This is a soft


water region – dose detergent for ‘soft water’


Be wildlife disturbance


sensitive – give it space & respect, it may be the law


Every


fuel/oil drop counts – refuel / top up with care


but ripples and footprints – take only photos & good memories


Keep


wake to a minimum … on the slow side!


Anti-foul may be a


necessary evil but make sure it’s in a tin, on your hull or being disposed of appropriately


Prevent Fat-Bergs


– reduce Food, Fats, Oils or Grease down the sink


Reduce >


Refuse > Reuse > Recycle


Dog parents – dispose


of all dog poo


appropriately – in the sea it can pose a risk to bathers and water quality


Only Rain Down road


Drains, they lead to natural water courses


Litter


matters – collect your 5-a-day


Fit a holding


tank and use local pump-out facilities – if you must pump-out, only pump out on the ebbing tide or out to sea
