Welcome to the RMBOA
The
River Murray Boat Owners Association (RMBOA) is a
group who enjoy the Murray for its beauty, wildlife, vegetation,
recreational qualities and priceless value to our country. Our
code of practice
is designed so that we do not degrade these qualities or negatively
impact on other river users.
We are perhaps best known for conducting the biennial "River Ramble".
This event is not a race and is conducted at a leisurely and civilised
pace. We travel only about 40 kilometres (25 miles) a day, which gives
crews ample time to enjoy the river views, meet old or make new friends
and perhaps get a feeling for the history of the river. The
always-colourful fleet is made up of all types of vessels
from luxury houseboats to modest
tinnies. Twice a year (in non Ramble years) we conduct informal "Mini
Ambles".
The RMBOA also has a purpose in resisting unreasonable or impractical
controls and regulations that will divide river users and diminish
enjoyment of the river for all.
Our
aims and objectives as set out in the constitution are:
-
To assist in protecting
the River Murray and its environs from all forms of damage,
pollution and destruction by the education and
self-discipline of all who use it.
-
To communicate with
members and boat owners; to keep them informed of relevant
developments and to liaise with governments and
instrumentalities having any form of control over the river
and its environment.
-
To arrange, manage and
co-ordinate functions of recreation, education and
conservation surrounding the river, to benefit members and
other users of the river.
