AS part of Innisfail Game Fishing Club’s ongoing commitment to the region, President Nicholas Pervan recently presented a $500 donation to the Australian Volunteer Coastguard QF15 Innisfail Flotilla Commander Neville Duncan.

These funds will help with the operational costs to keep their rescue vessel on the water.

The Innisfail flotilla is part of a national marine rescue organisation run entirely by volunteers.

Coastguard volunteers are involved in patrol of local and coastal waters, marine radio services, search and rescue and public boating education.

The Coastguard is crucial to keeping boaties safe on the water and always on call to provide help when needed.

The Innisfail Game Fishing Club encouraged others to donate whatever they can, so the Coastguard can continue their important work.
