IN AN EMERGENCY DIAL 111 FOR Police or VHF Ch 16 Mayday

At this year’s Open Day visitors got an up-close look at our operations and enjoyed chatting with our dedicated volunteers.


From ‘casualty’ pickups to precision manoeuvres near the breakwater, our live demos showcased the impressive rescue skills of our volunteers.


The station tours sparked plenty of great questions about what we do and how we serve the community.


A big thank you to everyone who joined us. It was a pleasure meeting visitors from near and far.


(Note, we had permission from the Harbourmaster to operate at speeds exceeding the 5knot limit close to shore!)
