Since it’s inception in 1982, this Unit has conducted over four thousand rescues in Moreton Bay thereby transferring to safety some ten thousand persons and recovering vessels whose combined value would be in excess of thirty million dollars!

“Given” an old besser brick shelter shed by the Redland Council back in the eighties, it has been progressively extended and improved upon by it’s members it to a well equipped and highly functional operations establishment. The Unit is one of the fastest growing volunteer groups in the area and has had to introduce a waiting list for new members. Policy is to encourage the local youth to participate in this essential volunteer activity and this has proven to very successful with the youngest commercial rescue vessel Skipper in Australia being promoted to this position at the age of nineteen. Great pride is also taken in the fact that VMR Victoria Point is the only Unit in Australia to have four female Rescue Skippers, the youngest being 21. With another three female crewmembers in the ranks, we are very proud of “our ladies” and their involvement has made us a unique in the industry. 
This Unit has only prospered since unanimously adopting the policy of youth involvement and commitment to the community of Redlands. This approach ensures a strong and sustainable rescue service well into the future.
