The station is staffed by volunteers. There was one rescue boat on the premises but it was under cover & entry is prohibited. The main rescue boat is generally based at nearby Greenwell Point however it was not at the wharf when I visited.
This rescue station mainly services fishermen both recreational & commercial however the main rescue boat is capable of most marine rescues. Upgrades to the rescue boats rely on donations from the public & state & local government grants.
A new rescue vessel was launched in the Manning River at Taree (northern NSW) last month. A 38 foot Steber, it will eventually be berthed at Greenwell Point.
The new vessel is yet to arrive but have added photos of the existing vessels.
