It was a beautiful day in Hermanus where Rotarians and Rotary Anns from Table Bay, Newlands and Hermanus gathered to hand over a rescue vehicle to NSRI Station 17 Hermanus.Our relationship with Rotary goes back a long way. In fact, this year, NSRI Hermanus celebrates 40 years and their first rescue boat 'Florence Carter' was sponsored by Rotary.
