23.01.2022 Last night the Marine Rescue Exmouth crew headed out into the gulf onboard Ningaloo Endeavour for a bit of Night Navigation training. Learning skills, gaining confidence, finding problems, making improvements and building teams. There are so many benefits to training!

23.01.2022 Was a big effort yesterday and we would like to praise the public, local businesses and all the other agencies that got involved...you helped make this a very successful operation. The police had a lot on their plate yesterday and we thank them for their leadership and direction...well done guys.

23.01.2022 With a big swell pounding our West Coast at the moment, its a good time to remind everyone not to be complacent. Big Swells can kill!!! Keep an eye on the towns visitors and make sure they dont take unnecessary chances.

18.01.2022 Busy night last night but everyone was home safe in bed by midnight!

17.01.2022 Happy Birthday to our incredible volunteer Treasurer Grace! When Grace isnt doing her amazing Sea Shepherd work saving our oceans for us to all continue enjoying, shes looking after Marine Rescue Exmouth finances and manning the radios during incidents. We couldnt do what we do without you Grace. Thank you and have a great day!!

16.01.2022 Today our volunteers Bec, Deb and Miriam took Port Hedland Commander Zac out for the day on Cape Endevour to help him design a brand new Naiad for his group up north. It was a sloppy choppy day but Zac said he likes it rough Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise Zac, great to have you on board today! Good luck with the new build!

15.01.2022 A lot of people have been put through hell in the last 24 hours and the pain will last long after today is over. Our deepest sympathies to the family and friends and all our support to the volunteers and responders involved.

15.01.2022 Sometimes the distain for synthetic clothing is to be overridden for the sake of safety...sorry to put one of our highly regarded members through this but we are great full for you taking one for the team.

13.01.2022 Before Cape Endeavour was delivered to Exmouth, local Marine Rescue Commander Rusty Ellis put the groups new vessel to the test! Since her delivery a few mo...nths ago, the ESL funded vessel has already attended five incidents and has made a huge difference to the local community by speeding up the response time for incidents on the western side of the Exmouth Cape See more

07.01.2022 Another big day out today. Towed a broken down vessel back from near Peak Island. Nice day for it

07.01.2022 This is a handy start but we can help you understand how to service your safety gear at any time.

06.01.2022 We've released a new safety alert to remind owners, operators, masters and crew of certain domestic commercial vessels to install a float-free EPIRB before 1 January 2021. Learn more: http://ow.ly/XmVq50BYfSz

06.01.2022 Just in July alone Marine Rescue Exmouth has received multiple calls for help each week, these pictures show just a few of our recent jobs. All call outs this month luckily have been mechanical issues, towing vessels to safety, but we all know a simple breakdown can escalate into something worse on our reefs. Please remember to check your vessels fuel levels, electrics, steering etc before you go out so you enjoy your day to the max! Thank you to all the volunteers that are regularly spending hours at a time away from their jobs and families to respond.

05.01.2022 Marine Rescue Exmouth would like to thank everyone who attended yesterdays memorial service for Ern Seaman to celebrate his life with his beloved wife and family. Ern will always be remembered as a genuinely lovely man and a wonderful friend to many.
