Power Boat Squadron

The Power Boat Squadron is an intraclub of the Hervey Bay Boat Club for all boat owners and those people interested in on-water activities and water safety.

During the year the club organises different on and off water events for those persons interested in these types of activities to give them the opportunity to learn the right procedures and protocol for the safe handling of boats and consideration to other water users. We conduct various cruises on the waters of Hervey Bay to acquaint members of the different areas of the Bay that they can use their boats for recreational purposes.

Membership of the club enables you to participate in all our activities, attend all general meetings with full voting rights and all this costs is $5.00 per annum. Our general meetings are held bi-monthly from November on the third Monday in the Board Room commencing at 7.30pm. Everyone is welcome to attend.

Annual Events

The activities we conduct during the year include

 Jack Cain Memorial Fishing Competition

Get to know your GPS!

In April we run a familiarisation cruise which is open to all members of the Boat Club where we show them the areas of Hervey Bay and give out GPS markings as well as giving instructions on the correct way to use a GPS and how to operate marine radios.
