Marine Rescue NSW crews assist search for rock fisherman believed to be missing off Bushrangers Bay

Volunteers and vessels from Marine Rescue Shellharbour and Shoalhaven are assisting a multi-agency search for a rock fisherman believed to be missing off Bushrangers Bay.

Marine Rescue NSW Inspector Glenn Sullivan said volunteer crews were requested by the NSW Police Marine Area Command to commence an on-water search south of Bushrangers Bay at 8.30 this morning.

“Marine Rescue NSW vessels Shellharbour 30 and Shoalhaven 30 are conducting a parallel line search from Bombo down to Black Head, off Gerroa.

“Conditions are favourable offshore and both Marine Rescue NSW vessels will continue searching until instructed otherwise by Marine Area Command,” Inspector Sullivan said.

Marine Rescue NSW is a volunteer based not-for-profit professional organisation dedicated to keeping boaters safe on the water and supporting local communities.
