Show Notes
South Australian authorities are stepping up patrols this long weekend, urging boaters to double-check their gear and always wear lifejackets. Compliance issues are a concern, with over 35% of vessels inspected since October 2025 found to be lacking basic safety equipment. The state has seen 24 boating fatalities since July 2020, with most victims not wearing lifejackets. Officials emphasize the importance of preparation and wearing lifejackets to prevent tragedies. The state is working towards zero water fatalities with improved signage, web cameras, and safety clinics.
