The river and the boats where there when people decided to buy near or on the river and they would have known about people using the waterways at all times of the day. I don't understand why the restriction is only on towing people? shouldn't it be all boats if there is a problem?

If the wakeboarders/skiers are playing loud music which is the issue then impose the ban on that rather than the entire use case. Otherwise ban all use of motor vessels.

Wakeboarding and Ski'ing helps create unity, builds friendship and makes u feel part of a bigger community.

I would strongly suggest you look carefully at why it is your restricting use, remember boating would have a small impact on the river system in comparison to the development proceeding in the general area. Maybe a permit could be a way of controlling river use?

If the time restrictions go ahead, we will have to go elsewhere, to make full use of our short time away from Melbourne.

As dedicated riders we usually let the family's have the middle part of the day to tow a tube etc for the kids and make the most of the early morning and later afternoon water. If this is no longer going to be possible I am sure that myself and a number of my friends who frequently visit the area will no longer bother. We will find a new unrestricted holiday destination.

Residents should know full well when they buy on the river that it is used by skiers at these times. I will no longer be bringing my boat to the Noosa region and no longer be spending my money in the local economy!

Every year at christmas for the past 6 years we have stayed on the canals with our family friends solely for the purpose that we can have the boat on the water and go out for runs early in the morning before getting over run by all the other holidayers and so we can go shopping and sight seeing later in the day. I've spoken with both families and after this decision we've decided to get units on the Gold coast canals each year from now on. Quite upsetting

We will not be doing this anymore due to these restrictions. We have hired/used a wakeboarding boat to use over these periods. we will not be doing this anymore due to these restrictions. I feel sorry for the businesses and locals that have lost the rights to use the waterways in accordance with Maritime laws of towing a person from sun rise to sun set

I don't see why a great number of people should take the bulk of the responsibility of people who haven't thought their purchases through. I wonder whether some councilors live on the river.......

Hilarious to even try. This is what Australian life is all about get out and being active, this is going to cause more problems then solving them. People should noe be living in the area if they dont like the life style it brings. What is this country coming to! 8am till 5pm! It is going to be crowded and an accident waiting to happen. I think that more thought needs to be put in place before anything is actioned! It is truly a joke!!!!!!!

When I travel down there to see mates we like to get up early and have a wakeboard/barefoot/ski to get all the smooth water, by 8 the waters already starting to get rough, same with the afternoons, 5 is to early for the water to flatten out. If this is the case then my mates and I will find somewhere else to holiday which would be a shame as we like going to noosa, but whats the point if we can only ski in rough water.

Increased awareness, and stricter policing of boating laws is a much more reasonable approach. Education is invaluable as it is unfair to burdon all river users due to the minority causing problems. Eradicating the problem boaters is going to have a much more sustainable future.

I just can't believe a council would restrict sport within their community.
