The mission of the NSRI is to save lives and promote all aspects of safety at sea and on inland waters by establishing and maintaining lifeboat stations staffed by well trained and highly motivated volunteer crews using rescue craft equipped to the highest technological standards, backed by an efficient managment team, and to competently fulfil the institute's role within the South African search and rescue organisation.

Join them for a cuppa java or rooibos tea and something nice to eat between 10:00 and 12:00 on Sunday morning. Meet the crew and the lovely ladies serving you.
The station 17 crew actively fundraise to maintain and upkeep the rescue craft, their station and the slipway. The support of the public and business is essential in providing this ongoing vital service to those in trouble in our oceans.
The NSRI crew busy with training.
Operations up and until December 2009 equates to 485, but 505 operations have successfully been performed up and until today. As the crew were at pains to explain, the 50 lives saved would have been lost - were it not for split second intervention by station 17. Nosy Rosy salutes our local NSRI crew.
Also pay a visit to their shop at Market Square, you are bound to find the perfect gift for your loved one this Xmas and guess what?
It goes towards such a worthy cause, saving a life at sea, who knows, one day it could be you or me?
