V. Valiant volunteers.

Valiant volunteer Tim Warner
at the launch of the Alwyn Tamo - 19 March 2011

Vera is very interested in volunteering with the Volunteer Marine Rescue. She has a voracious appetite for learning all she can about her vivacious hero Alwyn Tamo who was a visionary and vigilant in her determination to value the lives of all people revving around on Westernport Bay.

The vistas around Victoria are very dangerous, but the volunteers are valiant! They give up their time without pay and may come across scenes of violent destruction, which they tackle with visible determination and bounce back with vim and vigour.

Occasionally they become vexed with some vessel owners, but they're never vindictive.

The chaplain from HMAS Cerberus is part of the official party.

Launch of the Alwyn Tamo - 19 March 2011

The Alwyn Tamo can navigate Bass Strait
(a notoriously treacherous stretch of water).

On a sunny day at low tide, looking towards The Heads from Sorrento -
ie. towards the entrance to Port Phillip Bay.
