Sea Mercy

Next Steps Expanding capacity to deliver Sea Mercy's success to date has been achieved utilising a volunteer fleet of cruising and superyachts. Sea Mercy now needs to develop a larger fleet of vessels to improve the efficiency, reliability and reach of its programmes. The establishment of Sea Mercy Australia (SMA) enables outreach to si z eable local yachting communities relatively close to the south Pacific and opens the door to existing philanthropic and Governmental ties to the region. I mportantly accessing the large body of medical professionals (field doctors, nurses, dentists) in Australia will increase the frequency and volume of Floating Health Care Clinics, with shorter travel distances to areas of operations. To secure delivery capacity, SMA will continue to seek partners for the construction of Sea Mercy owned vessels. The " Pahi 63" represents an affordable and scalable template for Sea Mercy's operations, providing transport and accommodation for program volunteers. The " Sea Bridge One " project aims to raise money for the construction of a custom designed humanitarian mothership that provides infrastructure and supports activities across multiple countries. The addition of these vessels will significantly and dramatically impact Sea Mercy's capacity to deliver. SMA seeks ties with Business, Government and Philanthropic organisations to help establish a strong economic base in Australia to further its mission. Partners could offer expertise, financial support, or introductions to networks.
