“You’ve got to give back.”

For Beach Haven’s Jeff Heinel, those words are more than a sentiment. They are a call to action – one he recently answered by donating a brand-new 2026 Yamaha VX Cruiser rescue watercraft to the Beach Haven Volunteer Fire Co.

Fire Chief Ferdinand Mather III said the new craft gives the water rescue department another critical tool to use for swimmers in distress, boating accidents and other emergencies on the ocean and bay.
