We regularly run night training with both our vessels so that we can practice drills such as towing and rafting.

Sometimes it’s dark and rough and other times it’s a beautiful evening.

If you ever need assistance on the water night or day, call 000.

Winter gives our flotilla a great opportunity for night training out on Port Phillip. It’s a very different perspective going out into the abyss of darkness but we managed to view navigational lights, simulate a line search, tow, retrieve vessels and communications.
Great work team! 🌙

To every volunteer who gives their time, energy, and heart in service to others, thank you. Your generosity does not go unnoticed, and your willingness to step forward, often when others step back, is nothing short of inspiring. You represent the very best of community spirit: kindness in action, compassion without expectation, and dedication without recognition.

A very special thank you goes to the incredible volunteers within our marine rescue community. In all conditions,calm or challenging, you stand ready to answer the call. Whether it’s assisting those in distress, safeguarding lives, or providing reassurance in moments of uncertainty, your courage and professionalism make a profound difference. You are often the quiet heroes on the water, bringing hope where it’s needed most.

Your commitment goes beyond duty, it reflects a deep care for people, for safety, and for each other. The countless hours you dedicate, the skills you continually refine, and the sacrifices you make do not go unseen. Because of you, families are reunited, lives are protected, and communities feel safer.

To all volunteers, and especially our marine rescue teams, we are deeply grateful. Thank you for your service, your strength, and your unwavering dedication. You make the world a better, safer place.
