Anyone can drown, no one should.

Today is World #DrowningPrevention Day & together with Royal Life Saving Society - Australia we have been presenting the 2025 National Water Safety Summit in Sydney.

Held on behalf of the Australian Water Safety Council, the Summit brings together more than 230 delegates from across the water safety, health, education & community sectors to chart a clear path towards halving drowning by 2030.

The cooler weather is a great opportunity to double check your equipment is safe for summer. ​

Make sure to take some time to assess over your boat, engine, and watercraft for any faults. Is it time to get your lifejacket serviced? 🤔

Running a National Event as large as the SHARKSKIN #irbchamps2025 can be tough, with hundreds of competitors & craft needing to be moved across the beach quickly & safely.

Cue the BRP Can-Am, which makes short work of setting up the arena for competition!
