#RESCUE: #Lifesaver30 responded to reports of paddleboarders swept out to sea at Westernport Bay. Upon arriving on scene they were quickly located; VMR Hastings and Aus Vol Coast Guard Westernport were directed in to recover them.

Life Jackets can save lives and should be on the top of your boat check list this long weekend. #Lifejackets
