A boat with style and performance<br />
When it comes to boats, Glastron<br />
is a name synonymous with quality<br />
and innovation, including its<br />
revolutionary SSV ® Hull design.<br />
Reliable performance and<br />
luxurious features make the GTS<br />
185 one of the most popular selling<br />
boats—and you don’t have to look<br />
very far to see why.<br />
With its daring and attractive<br />
GTS graphics package and custom<br />
upgraded GTS interior, this revvedup<br />
4.5 litre, 250hp rated cruiser<br />
will set you apart from the crowd.<br />
On board you’ll find comfy<br />
seats with flip-up bucket bolsters,<br />
a sundeck (converts to chaise<br />
lounge), and an abundance of<br />
storage, including a built-in under<br />
bench seat cooler.<br />
Whilst enjoying the ride treat<br />
yourself to some of your favourite<br />
tunes using the built-in stereo<br />
system, which includes Kicker ®<br />
AM/FM, MP3 port and Bluetooth ®<br />
connectivity—along with dual<br />
speakers. There is also a USB<br />
charge point in case your phone<br />
battery runs low.<br />
And with a custom-matched<br />
Glastron trailer, you’ll take your<br />
GTS 185 anywhere this summer.<br />
Don’t miss out on fitting your<br />
new boat to meet the demands<br />
of your fun; plenty of additional<br />
features such as the wakeboard<br />
tower, rear swim platform with<br />
mats, and XL packs, allow you<br />
to personalise your boat from the<br />
ground up.<br />
With three colour options to<br />
choose from, including; Denim<br />
Blue with Denim Blue, Jet Black<br />
with Crimson Red and Phantom<br />
Grey with Vivid Green, you’re sure<br />
to find a colour scheme to suit your<br />
personality on the waves.<br />
So bring the family down to 38<br />
South Boat Sales then take a trip<br />
to your favourite spot, whether on<br />
the lake or at the beach, and churn<br />
some wakes along the way–the<br />
summer is yours with the attractive<br />
GTS 185 cruiser.<br />
Life-saving defibrillator packages<br />
can be acquired by Gippsland’s notfor-profit<br />
community organisations<br />
and venues delivering sport and active<br />
recreation programs, according to<br />
Gippsland East Nationals MP, Tim Bull.<br />
“They can be a lifesaving asset for<br />
any organisation, so I encourage local<br />
groups to apply to the Defibrillators<br />
for Sporting Clubs and Facilities<br />
Program by the 22 December closing<br />
date”, Mr Bull said.<br />
“The package includes a Philips<br />
HeartStart FRx Automatic External<br />
Defibrillator (AED), some basic<br />
emergency resuscitation skills training<br />
and six years of essential defibrillator<br />
maintenance.<br />
“An AED is a small portable<br />
medical device that detects heart<br />
electrical activity and delivers an<br />
electric shock based on the readings.<br />
As it’s automatic and has clear<br />
instructions, it doesn’t require a<br />
paramedic to operate it and can be<br />
used by anyone. This makes it an<br />
essential life-saving tool for sporting<br />
clubs, giving nearby spectators the<br />
opportunity to save a life.<br />
“In <strong>2017</strong>, Sudden Cardiac Arrest<br />
(SCA) is one of the leading causes<br />
of death in Australia. With more than<br />
33,000 Australians experiencing an<br />
out of hospital SCA every year, many<br />
falling victim at sports clubs, it’s<br />
important to seek ways to look after<br />
players and spectators and prevent<br />
unexpected deaths.<br />
“A SCA is caused by an underlying<br />
problem that results in the heart’s<br />
electrical system malfunctioning.<br />
These heart conditions are often<br />
genetic and symptom-less or by a<br />
heart being placed under extreme<br />
stress in something like a normal<br />
Saturday afternoon sporting game.<br />
“They’re lethal and the best way<br />
to restart the heart is by using an<br />
Automatic External Defibrillator or AED.<br />
“In a life threatening situation<br />
every second counts and people in<br />
Gippsland deserve the best chance<br />
at surviving a sudden cardiac arrest.<br />
“This is a great opportunity for<br />
club members to boost their first aid<br />
skills, improve planning for medical<br />
emergencies and ensure players or<br />
spectators suffering sudden cardiac<br />
arrest get help until paramedics<br />
arrive”, Mr Bull said.<br />
