Three people have died after a boating accident at Ballina on the northern NSW coast.
Two of those who died were volunteers from the local Marine Rescue Unit.
Emergency services were contacted about 6:15pm yesterday, after a member of the public reported a yacht having difficulties off the South Ballina breakwall.
Marine Rescue NSW responded, but its vessel rolled as it crossed the Ballina Bar in rough conditions.
