Marine Rescue is more than what you see on the water 🛥

Behind every rescue is a team helping keep our unit running through fundraising, radio operations, community events and support behind the scenes 💙

There’s a role for more people than you think.

🌊 Hope everyone stayed dry this weekend!

The weather cleared up on Sunday, so we were able to get the boat out for some man over board drills, navigation practice, and familiarisation with key landmarks around the lake. ⚓

We even spotted some jelly blubbers drifting past 🪼
