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.
