Today Marine Rescue NSW’s newest rescue vessel Botany Port Hacking 32, was launched onto the waters of the Clarence River at Yamba on the North Coast of NSW.
The state of the art rescue vessel made the short journey by truck from the yard at Yamba Welding and Engineering to the shores of the Clarence River, where it was lifted by a boat lift and lowered gently onto the water.
In coming weeks Botany Port Hacking 32 will undergo testing and sea trials before being transported to Sydney to start its new life on the busy waters of Port Hacking.
BH32 on the move.
