Is this legal?

March 28th, 2008

The other day I came across a group of larrikins who were “playing” on a channel marker.

They were pretty proud of themselves as they paddled out to the marker on blow-up makeshift rafts and all climbed up. Then they just stood there until they realised someone was watching. Then the foolishness kicked in.

Is it legal for people to climb up on and jump off a channel marker?

Who would be to blame if someone got hurt?

Or should mucking around on channel markers just be part of Aussie culture like drinking beer at the cricket and having a kangaroo as a pet?
