Every river trip tells a story, and every river run logged helps protect the future of jet boating in New Zealand.
When councils and other authorities review speed upliftings, river access, or resource consents, they’re increasingly asking one simple question:
“How many people actually use this river?”
If we can’t answer that with real data, it becomes much harder to justify keeping our rivers open for recreational jet boating. In some cases, decisions are even made without considering jet boaters at all.
That’s why the JBNZ River Run Log is so important.
It only takes a minute to record where you boated, when you were there, and roughly how many boats and people attended. You don’t even have to include your name, but every single entry helps build the evidence that our rivers are being used and enjoyed by New Zealand jet boaters. The more data we have, the stronger our voice becomes when we’re advocating for river access and speed upliftings.
Whether it’s a club run or just a Sunday mission with a couple of mates, please take a moment to log your trip.
Every run counts. Every log strengthens our future.
