The Victorian Recreational Boating Safety Handbook contains guidance and safety information for all recreational boaters, including sailors, kayakers, canoeists, rowers, wakeboarders, water-skiers, and kitesurfers.
The Victorian Recreational Boating Safety Handbook is a valuable reference if you are applying for a marine licence or a personal watercraft endorsement.
The complete handbook is available to download below in PDF or Word format.
It is also available to download by chapter to ease download times.
The current issue was released in 2020, with only minor updates to the 2018 version.
