  • Goulburn River Boating Guide
    GOULBURN RIVER BOATING GUIDE Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority has prepared the “Goulburn River Boating Guide” to help boaters safely enjoy this recreation venue. Funding to assist with the production of this guide has been made available by the State Government through a grant from the Boating Safety and Facilities Program administered by Marine Safety Victoria. THE WATERWAY Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority is the waterway manager appointed under the Marine Act 1988 for the Goulburn River between the Lake Eildon Pondage and Hughes Creek, excluding creeks and streams flowing into the river and storages. This represents a distance of approximately 165 km, much of it isolated. THE BOATING GUIDE Boat operators should recognise that water flow and depths vary during the year, often at very short notice. They should exercise care to ensure that they are operating in a safe fashion appropriate to their location and not adversely impacting on other water users and the environment. The guide is intended to provide information to raise the level of boating safety awareness before people venture onto the river to enjoy the boating experience. The Goulburn River offers a diverse boating and recreational activity environment that attracts people to enjoy fishing, canoeing/kayaking and rafting. The major source of water is Lake Eildon and these waters are used for irrigation in northern Victoria, with the balance flowing into the Murray River. The varying demand for irrigation is one of the reasons for periodic changes to the river that may impact on boating. The Statewide operating rules made under the provisions of the Marine Act 1988 apply to the whole of the Goulburn River between the Eildon Pondage and Hughes Creek (downstream from Seymour).
