Freycinet (pronounced Fray-sin-nay)

Volunteer Marine Rescue Association Inc is a 100% volunteer, not-for-​profit, community service organisation, based in Swansea on Tasmania's East Coast overlooking the magnificent Freycinet Peninsula.

 

We were formed in 2001 as a Flotilla of the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard Association. In 2011 we formed our own incorporated body and have operated solely as Freycinet VMR as part of a network of like minded associations through out Tasmania. 

​

Our objectives are:

• To promote safe boating.

• To assist in the preservation of life and property.

• To assist persons who have, as a result of misadventure or otherwise, endangered their lives, or the lives of others, or who can most conveniently be assisted by members of the Association.

• ​To train me​mbers, and members of the public, in safe operation of sea craft and use of marine radio.​

 

​Freycinet VMR operates in conjunction with Tasmania Police to provide marine emergency response within the Glamorgan-Spring Bay Municipality from Bicheno to Orford.​

​

Freycinet Volunteer Marine Rescue welcomes new members.
