Doing things right by the environment is the same as doing it right as a sailor, power boater, windsurfer or personal watercraft user. We provide information to recreational boat users to help them preserve the environment.

To help boat users, TGB has looked at a range of issues covering all aspects of recreational boating and the environment and have produced leaflets and Fact Sheets giving information and good advice. www.thegreenblue.org.uk/publications/index.asp

Welsh versions are available at www.thegreenblue.org.uk/wales/Welshpublications.htm

Topics covered include:

• Anti foul       
• Oil and fuel
• Boat maintenance
• Wild life
• Alien species
• Waste and resources
