Marine Rescue Hervey Bay provides a full rescue service to mariners who experience vessel breakdowns or require assistance due to medical or other emergencies.
Marine Rescue Hervey Bay Membership starts at just $55 per year (Ordinary Membership) and covers you for breakdown assistance for all areas of Great Sandy Strait and the Hervey Bay area bounded in the north by a line from Theodolite Creek to Long Shoal and following the Break Sea Spit (North of Sandy Cape) along the western side of Fraser Island, through to a line between Stewart Island and Garrys Anchorage in the south.
We can tow your vessel from one safe harbour to another for maintenance or repair (not covered by the Membership), please contact the base to discuss the job.
Please be aware we are not a commercial salvage business. We are here to help fellow boaties.
Our Charter, Insurance, Licence and Survey Regulations allow us to assist you on the water when in distress and there is an immediate danger to life or property. We can tow your vessel back to ‘safe harbour’ or in most cases your point of departure or launching that trip.
