Role of a Navigation Ranger
The work of the Broads Authority's navigation rangers is one of the most effective methods of managing the Broads navigation. As well as enforcing speed limits and making sure that boats navigate properly, navigation rangers play a vital role in educating people about important navigation issues.
They assist people in relation to day to day general issues, including safety procedures and tidal conditions, and they advise on planning issues. They liaise with the local police and other emergency services and respond to issues concerning pollution and oil spills.
They undertake training in first aid, VHF radio, boat handling and oil spill response.
