A LIVESTREAM of the Mordialloc boat ramp has gone up, giving boaters a better view of the conditions at Port Phillip Bay before they hit the water.
The online camera feed went up last month on the Boating Vic app and website. Cameras are now operating at the boat ramps in Hastings, Torquay, Queenscliff, Point Richards, St Leonards, Stony Point, Corinella, Safety Beach, and Mornington Schnapper Point.
Maritime Safety Director Cameron Toy said “we know that many Victorian boaters love to check boat ramp cameras before heading out. Boating Vic users can access these images at the same time as local weather details, for a clearer picture of what to expect. With all this information at their fingertips, boaters are able to be better prepared and make safer decisions.”
Visit boating.vic.gov.au or download the Boating Vic app to view the live feed.
