Boaties are running out of time to take advantage of the Old4New lifejacket upgrade program before it ends for the season.
Under the program old, bulky lifejackets in any condition can be traded in for a discount on a brand new one at the roving Old4New lifejacket van.
The Old4New lifejacket van will stop at the Georges River Sailing Club at Sandringham on Saturday, October 3, from 7:30am to 1pm.
Since Old4New was launched in 2013, the van has travelled more than 72,000km, visited more than 370 sites and helped people in 15,000 lifejacket upgrades.
