A volunteer crew on board Marine rescue vessel Botany Port Hacking 30 resumed the multi-agency search for a missing rock fisherman off the Royal National Park at 9am today (Monday 14 August).
Botany Port Hacking 30 skipper Brad Whittaker said conditions are poor on the Illawarra Coast.
“There is one-and-a-half metres of south swell and 15 knots of southerly wind which is expected to increase across the day.
“It’s a lumpy swell and it’s raining,” he said.
Mr Whittaker said the Marine Rescue NSW crew is conducting a parallel line search with Surf Lifesaving NSW support skis.
“We are searching from Wattamolla Beach down to Garie Beach,” he said.
