087 094 9774

Near the back of each issue of the Sea Rescue magazine is our station listing. It lists station commanders, telephone numbers and ... what each station needs most. The response to these needs are amazing, and really show how much people care about NSRI. Here is an illustration of this from Richards Bay:Says Brynn Gerricke, 'The last issue was hot off the press when we received a call from David van der Merwe of Dimag Electrical from Ermelo. He said that that he was coming to Richards Bay to fish in the Bonanza Fishing Competition and could donate us the Digital Multi Meter that we need. True to his word he called us this weekend and presented us with the much needed multi meter which will be used to help with boat and base maintenance.”
