Dataset Update: NSW Boat Registrations & Licences

For those working with transport and recreational data, the latest NSW Boat Registrations and Licences data is now available for use.

It includes postcode-level aggregates for:
• Recreational vessel (RV) registrations
• Personal watercraft (PWCR) registrations
• Count of boating licences

Sourced from Maritime NSW, the dataset covers recreational boating activity, linking vessel registrations with general recreational and PWC boating licences.

Useful for trend analysis, modelling, and understanding regional participation patterns across NSW.

Interested in use cases or integration approaches? Keen to hear how others might apply this dataset.
