Honorary Bay Rangers.
The Honorary Bay Ranger
Program is a voluntary group working with the Rottnest Island Authority to make
the boating management system more user-friendly for members of the boating
community who visit Rottnest Island.
The volunteers provide information to
members of the boating community as well as acting as a conduit for customer
feedback to the RIA. Volunteers are members of the boating community who
regularly visit Rottnest Island and who spend considerable time on their boats.

Rottnest Island and a seat on the

Issues Advisory Committee. The committee is made up of mooring lessees and general users
of the Island. In 2000, we started our public forums for people interested in the
