How to Log-On Your Vessel by Mobile Phone

MRNSW provides a free smartphone app allowing boaters to Log-On automatically.
The app enables KRS Members and Non-KRS Members to Log-On with their nearest Marine Rescue Unit via their phone/tablet. The app also offers users a range of other features, including latitude/longitude position coordinates, safety information, quick access to local weather conditions and information about MRNSW.
The app has been designed as the third element of our integrated Seahawk and Radio Club management systems. It provides an ALTERNATIVE, but does NOT REPLACE, radio Log-Ons!

Do not log-off until your vessel and passengers are back safely to shore.
