Radio Club

Joining Marine Rescue Port Kembla unit’s Radio Club is a great way for you to show your support for our volunteers and the vital emergency services we provide on local waterways.

Your annual club subscription makes an important contribution to our volunteer fundraising, which is essential to our not-for-profit organisation.

You’ll be helping Port Kembla stay rescue-ready but your contribution is more than financial. More importantly, you’ll be joining us on our mission to save lives on the water.

Our Radio Club members’ enhanced safety awareness means they are a valuable auxiliary asset on the water, potentially providing extra eyes to help our crews locate a missing vessel or giving initial assistance to a fellow boater in trouble until a rescue crew arrives on scene.

As a club member, you’ll receive a unique Marine Rescue-issued radio call sign, your ENS Number. Using this brief identifier will save you time on the radio when you’re contacting us, such as when you Log On, Log Off or want to check your radio is operating effectively. You’ll also be able to use the MarineRescue App which is quicker and easier for Radio Club members, too.

To become a Radio Club member, complete the form per the link below, and either email it in, or attend the Hill 60, or Port Kembla harbour bases.

Our current membership fee is $50 per year.
