They are banned on Sydney Harbour. Rightly so.
A ban on the Broken Bay/Hawkesbury would be good.
If used as transport for a purpose they could have merit, but it`s not how they are used. They commonly operate in packs. How operators maintain interest operating one after 5 minutes is a mystery. If law enforcement on the water equalled on the road, we would see far less of them.
An operator in south Sydney was recently filmed creating wake spray to demolish an(ill advised) Osprey nest on a channel marker and drown the chicks.They have been used to harass young kids in sailing dinghies. Just wrong.
