Rescue Boat Boost For Evans Head Boaties

The latest addition to the Marine Rescue NSW feet, a $556,000 rescue vessel, has been unveiled at Evans Head to better protect Northern NSW coastal communities.

Minister for Emergency Services and Resilience Steph Cooke said ‘Evans Head 31’ is one of 38 new vessels delivered through a $37.6 million NSW Liberal and Nationals Government investment.

“With powerful Suzuki engines, specialist Raymarine navigation equipment, radar, sonar and night vision capability, this 10-metre vessel has the speed and technology our volunteers need to undertake rescues and save lives in situations where every second counts,” Ms Cooke said.

Member for Clarence Chris Gulaptis said ‘Evans Head 31’ is an investment in the safety of the boating community and visitors.

“Evans Head is in an enviable position on the North Coast with access to both inland and offshore waters, and our boaters can rest a little easier knowing that this state-of-the-art vessel is ready should they run into trouble,” Mr Gulaptis said.

Marine Rescue NSW Deputy Commissioner Alex Barrell said the rescue vessel has been custom-designed and built to meet demanding local conditions.

“As well as operating on the river, the boat can quickly deploy up to 30 nautical miles out to sea to rescue boaters who fnd themselves in trouble offshore,” Deputy Commissioner Barrell said.
