Banning Jet Ski's on lakes is one thing but banning them at a beach is just laziness. It's easier to ban them than to implement restrictions, restrictions that should be punished if they are violated. An outright ban is not the solution.

I have owned a Jetski for a number of years and I am dismayed to hear that yet another Council are considering a total ban on PWCs without any consultation with users. Any genuine PWC enthusiasts will be willing to come to any agreement (e.g. segregation, licencing etc) to avert a total ban. Banning is an easy solution for a council not willing to properly regulate PWC activity. Please reconsider and liaise with bodies like the NWPWC. I certainly will stop all visits to Donegal if ban comes in.

I would be a regular visiter to Co Donegal with my family to jetski. I think it is a disgrace that a compromise can't be agreed without a total ban on the sport. The Beaches along the Dundalk coastline have been banned and there was no negotiation. The sea at Blackrock to Annigassin is only used by the occasional wind surfer and it should be for everyone to enjoy wind powered or otherwise.If it's banned then myself and friends will have to take or well earned cash elsewhere and not Co Donegal.

it would be a crying shame to see these beaches closed to jetskiers. It really does need some compromise between the needs of jetskiers and the council.:Jetskiers come into the area with thier familys and spend quite a bit of money and this stream of revenue will go to more jet ski friewndly areas if this ban proceeds. In many places in england and wales an agreement has been reached wherby it is benificial to councils and also to jetskiers, i hope the council will seek out simialr arrangments.

We as a family are greatly distressed to learn of the propossed ban. We have a mobile home in Donegal and spend alot of time there all year round.We also have regular visits from our American friends and family who have enjoyed many years jet skiing. This ban would undoubtedly effect our holidaying in Donegal as there are so few other amenities this was a main attraction especially for young people. We would certainly like to see a zoned area for jet skis. Proper training and registration.

THIS IS NOT FAIR not everyone is an idiot on a jet ski there is some of us with friends and families that are responsible users of the pwc and members of clubs… ok there should be laws and signage put in place for the users of these’s pwc’s to educate but banning of the water that’s not the way forward, why stop people having hobbies or enjoyment. You wouldn’t ban drink just because people get into fights or ban people on roads just because of boy racers why spoil peoples enjoyment. PLEASE HELP

Everyone has the right to live. The Beaches and water alike should be enjoyed by all. I go to the beach most Sundays for a walk and the skis don't annoy me. It's nice to see young families getting on with life. I say give them an area of their own to use on each beach, and everyone else get a life.

A jet ski should have every right the same as a boat, not everyone on jet skis act like idiots. You have many car, boat, motorcyle accidents and I dont see them getting banned from the roads and water. Doesnt make any sense.

I take my jetski over to Donegal regularly, when I am there I fill up by car & ski with fuel and I usually stop for food, giving that there are usually 2-3 people with me we can spend circa £150 - £200 on a trip. If the council did the maths, they would realise that this ban will impact on tourism & the economy.

Please stop this ridiculous narrow minded attitude to our sport. Take a leaf out of Limavady and Antrim councils book who are working with the clubs to address any issues and concerns.
