New Zealand Volunteer Coastguard

Imagine the unthinkable:

Mayday Mayday Mayday.We are vessel Imagination, we are 10 nautical miles due West of Manukau Harbour entrance, we have 4 p.o.b and we are taking on water please hel.........

Coastguard responds:

Imagination we receive your distress call and will despatch one of our rescue vessels as soon as we can raise enough funds for some crew and fuel.

We are totally dependent upon memberships, donations, bequests, grants and sponsorships for our revenues, all our crews give up their time as unpaid volunteers.

With your help we can continue the work that earlier generations have established as the hallmark of a truly professional, dedicated organisation.
