Lifejacket Clinic
Past Event
Maritime is inviting you to one of our FREE lifejackets clinics as part of our new boating safety initiative, Make a difference.
The "Make a difference, maintain and wear your lifejacket" program shows boaties how to service their lifejackets and promotes the importance of wearing a lifejacket while boating.
During the clinics you will learn how to maintain your lifejacket and vouchers are available to assist with the cost of servicing or replacing a lifejacket when required.
DoT will deliver the campaign with the valued assistance of its retail partners throughout WA who share a commitment to the promotion of boating safety.
