Marine Rescue Crews Searching For Missing Man Off Newcastle
Two Marine Rescue NSW vessels have been deployed by the NSW Police Marine Area Command this afternoon to search for a missing crew member from a large commercial vessel off Newcastle.
Marine Rescue NSW Inspector Steve Raymond reported that volunteer crews were tasked at 12 pm today (8 November 2024).
“Volunteer crews were rapidly assembled by Marine Rescue Newcastle and Lake Macquarie,” Inspector Raymond said.
“Rescue vessel Newcastle 30 was on the water within 15 minutes, while Lake Macquarie 30 was deployed and is currently en route to the search location.
“The Marine Rescue NSW vessels will rendezvous with two Water Police boats to conduct search patterns under the direction of NSW Police Marine Area Command,” he added.
