Safety at Sea made Simple
All boaties connected via the Rescue Zone Mobile App
The App every Boatie needs on the Water
- Recreational fishers that require VHF radio.
- Coastal hobbyists like Jet Skiers or Kayakers.
- Yachties who want to connect.
- Crafts without fish finders who need to log rich fishing spot information and easily navigate back to them.
With millions of boats on the water, our aim is to keep boating a safe and enjoyable pastime, reducing accidents while increasing community among boaters.

"Rescue Zone has huge potential to make a real difference to the lives of recreational Boaties. The app is packed full of state-of-the-art mobile technology that not only allows you to easily access safety from the palm of your hand but allows you to connect with other boaties in real-time. Together, these types of collaborations, in high pressured situations where every second counts, Rescue Zone is an invaluable tool to keeping our Boaties safe on the water."
Eric Holliday
CEO, FISH Safety Foundation
"As a professional seafarer for over 30 years, and 20 years as a Volunteer Coastguard crew member, I see Rescue Zone as an important tool in Search and Rescue. Being able to call for help with greater accuracy of location, many hours of searching could be reduced, with faster rescues and more lives saved."
Paul Baggott

"Very handy tool to have as part of your safety on your boat, all the extra great features make it so much more desirable and fun to use. So much in one app."
