    i was told that there were a lot of problems down there

    we get moved to small places where there's lots of ski's and lots of problems.

    sydney harbour isn't polluted compared to the places we need to go, skiing around syringes ain't pretty.

    If there's no problems how come everyone tells me there is? supporting the cause in sydney not only helps us but can help you guys if you have problems.

    whos everyone....the only reason theres problems here is because most people aren't willing to travel 10mins away from there house to go skiin...if its the swan river that people are telling you about then most people I know couldn't care less if the swan was closed to all skis...its only the racers that care about that brown stain....Rocko is good but it does get conjested on a sunday..but thats not to say its the only spot to go...if you have a stand up or a two stroke then your limited by were you can go...As for the bigger boats..I as well as most of the people I speak to on our forum and in our club don't complain about not having anywere to ski...we just find somewere else...I don't know sydney that well but when you say banned from the harbour what area does that consist of...

    fair enough

    well we are banned in the whole harbour from parramatta river out to the heads its a bit of a pain seeings we live 2 minutes from the ramp but to go for a ski we need to travel 45 minutes, this is why we want to try get it back

    yeah not bein able to use a ramp two mins away would suck....maybe start by seeing if they'll let you transit through the area...Little Steps

    hehe i wish!!! when we were young we used to head out for the best day stop at the fish markets and get a feed it was awesome

    we got a political party behind us now and we proposed certain conditions and areas hopefully it will work out well we also got some kids charities that we are going to try and donate money towards so even if we can help them it will be great

    maybe it was swan river not to sure i don't know much about perth but don't want the same restrictions like we have here. the way things are going we won't have the ocean to play with (it wouldn't suprise me if they banned that too)

    That's it Dom.

    Believe it or not people one thing Mr Carr mentioned in the 2001 proposal for the Syd Harbour ban was that PWC registrations and licence fees would increase almost 100 fold (and they did) and that the extra revenue would be poured back into the harbour! Now if that doesn't tick you off. I sure hope the rest of you guys and girls in OZ don't get stung paying around $250 a year in rego and about the same for a three year licence, damn my five year car licence was like half that.

    Lets do a comparison,

    State/rego fee/lic fee.........................................
