Code of Practice: The Safe Operation of Recreational Craft

Published 07:00 on 22 Jun 2018

As we approach the recreational craft season, the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport wishes to draw attention to the availability of the new and revised Code of Practice for the Safe Operation of Recreational Craft, which was published in November 2017.

The booklet can be downloaded for free from the www.dttas.ie or Safety on the Water websites.

The Code of Practice is a valuable source of information, advice and best practice operational guidance for owners, masters, operators and users of a range of pleasure and recreational craft operating in Irish coastal and inland waters.

To get your FREE copy of the Code of Practice from the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport contact marineleisuresafety@dttas.ie or call 01 678 3434.

For more detail on the content and structure of the Code of Practice, please see Marine Notice No. 9 of 2018 which is available on the Department's website here.
