Fire and Rescue warning for jet skiers
Tayside Fire and Rescue are warning jet skiers and power boats using the Tay to be aware of their training exercises. When training is taking place for the water rescue teams they use lines that could pose a danger to high speed vehicles. With their changing rotas, they are not always out on the water at the same time or same place. It is expected that signs will be erected but in the meantime they recommend that those going out on the water check along its length to see if there is any activity.
