"The same rules that apply on land also apply in our waterways, bays and out at sea.
"If you're looking for a loophole to leave the home, then you probably shouldn't be heading out."
He said there are essential reasons along Queensland's long and populated coastline where people need their boat - like fishing, exercise, going shopping, or getting to work.
"The current rules don't seek to stop boat owners using their boats for essential reasons," he said.
"Boaties should stay as local as possible, and social distancing rules apply, at the boat ramp and on your boat.
"Boaties should only be with one other person, or with family from the same household."
yep as “cloudee” says read your own post.
