New boat for Marine Rescue

Marine Rescue Central Coast has accepted the delivery of its new Cobia 6.5 metre rigid hull inflatable boat.

The boat, Central Coast 21, was delivered at Lions Park, Woy Woy, on Wednesday, November 29.

Central Coast 21 has replaced Central Coast 11 which moved to Brooklyn to be used by its new owner as a water taxi.

Training to use the new Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat will commence immediately so that the vessel can be put into operation as soon as possible.

The Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat has twin Suzuki 90 HP outboard engines that will power its performance as a fast emergency response vessel.
