What a stunning day out on the river today!
We spent the morning training in towing and rafting alongside DFES — always great to sharpen our skills on the water.

A big shoutout to Murchison Boat Hire for supplying one of their hire boats as our “stricken” vessel for the exercise..(ps: it wasn’t broken down)

If you’re keen to explore Kalbarri by water, check out their awesome range of recreational hire boats:

This month’s safety lesson report highlights an incident involving a lithium-ion battery system exploding onboard a domestic commercial vessel.

Vessel owners and operators should develop and implement a procedure for onboard charging of electronic devices and battery systems. This should consider the risk of a thermal runaway, including venting of toxic and flammable gasses and compounds.

Every month, we share an overview of a domestic commercial vessel incident investigation and the safety lesson you can learn to ensure safe operations on board your vessel.
