idlerboat 116 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 https://youtu.be/dj3WFqh8hc8 Heres a brand new short doco on VMR Mornington / Hastings. Victoria. It is mostly based around Mornington in Port philip Bay , But we actually have a larger and even busier vessel in Western port that is not shown in the footage.

idlerboat 116 Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 We have coast guard too... But we (VMR Mornington / Hastings) are a completely separate organisation. We dont do patrols or dress uniforms.... We are a rapid response Emergency service only.....Get the call....get there as quick as the situation dictates ...complete the task or tow, and go home. A bit like the old style English version... We actually have 5 boats and have never refused a call out in our history. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
