Volunteers from Marine Rescue Lake Macquarie will continue the search for a missing male boater on Lake Macquarie at Valentine today after searching for almost three hours last night.
Marine Rescue NSW Inspector Steve Raymond said Lake Macquarie 31 was deployed just before 9pm last night (Monday 25 November) to assist a multi-agency search led by NSW Police Marine Area Command.
“The volunteer crew on board Marine Rescue NSW vessel Lake Macquarie 31 searched waters until 11:45pm.
“Lake Macquarie 31 has been tasked to resume the search at 8:30am today and will conduct search patterns under the direction of NSW Police Marine Area Command,” Inspector Raymond 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.
