This petition calls on Premier Daniel Andrews to return to the majority of beach users their serene beaches and enjoyable summer holidays, to protect local marine wildlife and fragile ecosystems by BANNING jet skis from Rye to Point Nepean National Park!

The State Government is supporting the (growing) ownership of this type of powered watercraft without consideration for the impact on locals and visitors in coastal towns in the southern part of the Mornington Peninsula. These machines are frequently in the hands of hoons and become dangerous, destructive and an environmental hazardous weapons. Huge numbers of jet skiers are launching from Rye.

No one who lives in or visits Rye to Portsea or anywhere else on the Mornington Peninsula wants their peaceful holiday or day at the beach ruined by the whine & whomp of jet skis. We don't want to hear of some innocent person killed or see the dolphins tormented and hoons tearing through the dolphin nursery at Point Nepean National Park. We want a safe stress free break and to protect precious marine life.

If you want other areas included in the BAN please let us know by signing and putting the details in the comment section.
