Come Meet MRQ
Description

Do you have questions about Marine Rescue Queensland? Visiting our stand is your chance to speak directly with the volunteers who are out on the water every day. 

Learn who we are, what we do, and how we help keep Queensland’s boating community safe. 

Ask questions about boating safety, local conditions, rescue operations, or how MRQ supports boaters when things don’t go to plan. 

Whether you’re new to boating or experienced on the water, it’s a great opportunity to gain practical insights, connect with the people behind the calls for help, and see how MRQ plays a vital role across the state.

Small Boat. Big Win
Description

Visit the Marine Rescue Queensland stand and you could win a dinghy — perfect for exploring, fishing, or getting out on the water with confidence.

We’re giving one lucky visitor the chance to take home a Highfield 230 Roll Up Air Floor in light grey, powered by a Yamaha 2.5hp outboard, complete with appropriate safety equipment. It’s a compact, capable setup that’s big on fun and freedom.

Find us at The Parkway (PW18) to learn more.
