Congratulations to the NSRI Plettenberg Bay volunteers for being chosen as finalists in the 2019 International Maritime Rescue Federation’s (IMRF) Innovation and technology awards for their purpose designed rescue stretcher which was designed for coastline rock and surf patient extrication. NSRI Plettenberg Bay station commander Marc Rodgers and NSRI Plettenberg Bay coxswain Robbie Gibson will be winging their way to London on the 10th of September for the finalists’ awards luncheon.
NSRI Sea Rescue previously won the same category in 2018 for the Pink Rescue Buoys and in 2017 they were runners up in the team category for their NSRI Water Safety Education programme.
