Even in calm conditions skills built through practice are essential. The message at the end is equally important.

Seriously folks, having a safety chain and using the right tool for the job is essential for safe boating.
We’re pretty sure this was the wrong tool.

Definitely not Australia
He might have lost his tools with that manoeuvre!
Speaking of a tool. At holiday time the boat ramp is the best entertainment in town.
Training day had three crew groups cycle through water pump operations; lines, knots, bends and hitches; and chart plotter operations. While that was occurring, Hyne Timber Rescue and crew headed up to north of Coongul Creek to assist a solo sailer on a cat. A productive day all round.

Thank you for your service to our community.
Tonight was the Hervey Bay Blessing of the Fleet and a number of our volunteers took the opportunity to watch the procession, share dinner around the fire pits and watch the fireworks.

Drop in and day hello
MRQ inbound.
Maintain a lookout for more information leading up to MRHB transitioning to MRQ. Great news for boaties and volunteers on the way.

If you’re at the ramp or the dock, it’s always good to offer a hand to those in coming along side. Having said that, offering a foot is pretty dumb.

Maintenance Day takes many forms at MRHB, with so much to do…but there’s always time for morning tea. For those following along at home it was gluten free Apricot Slice then back to work. Well done team.
