How can I report someone acting dangerously on the water?

If you think someone is acting dangerously on the water and you think life is at risk, then call 999 and ask for the Coastguard or the police.

Partner agencies should call the MCA’s Regulatory Compliance Investigation Team on +44 (0) 203 81 72490 or email [email protected]

This has been copied from the Gov website so you are all clear !!

Worth a read a applies to all PWC not just Jetski's !!
We will be posting on how and who to report reckless PWC's very soon !

Warning for powered watercraft users as new legislation comes into force Anyone using a powered watercraft, such as a jet ski, is being warned to make sure they use them safely or risk facing prison or unlimited fines.

As we enter the easter weekend , the sun is shining and it that time to start reminding you all to please follow the rules to the slipway and the carpark !
Signs at top of slipway are all very clear and big enough for all to see!!
Appledore will be extremely busy but be respectful to all and hopeful that will work both ways !!
Enjoy the water and the surf !!

Just so all are aware the government have put in place a few very important changes to the use of jetskis and other water craft and those who ride them recklessly ! This we are fully on board with and look forward to working along side coastguard etc to help in any way we can, the link to the page is

🌊 So, the ocean and climate emergency. Let’s talk about it.

The ocean and climate are inextricably linked.🔗 If it’s impacting the ocean, it’s probably impacting the climate. And with all its functions that support life on earth, we have so much to thank the ocean for. Let's keep fighting to protect it. ✊

Taking up over 70% of the Earth’s surface, the ocean plays a fundamental role in tackling human-induced climate change, whilst also bearing the brunt of its impact. Rising greenhouse gas concentration has caused dramatic ocean warming, ocean acidification and deoxygenation, which is impacting communities and ecosystems across the world.

Rising ocean temperatures, sea level change, slowing ocean currents, deoxygenation and acidification are driving many marine species and habitats to extinction. A keystone species called Zooplankton is struggling to survive in warmer waters, causing shockwaves further up the food chain where marine mammals suffer from food shortages. Not to mention the struggles of Blue carbon habitats such as kelp forests, mangroves, seagrass meadows and tidal marshes. Covering only a fraction of the Earth’s surface, they are some of the world's most productive habitats but are quickly disappearing, with almost 30% of coverage lost already.

The ocean is a life-support system for the entire global population, so the impacts of climate change on marine ecosystems will influence every aspect of society, from tourism and trade to mental health and well-being. Rising sea levels, storm surges, and subsequent flooding also put increased pressure on sewer systems, resulting in declining water quality.

We need change. Read more about our campaign goals for ocean and climate on our website: https://buff.ly/38MpuM7
