Coast Guard National Magazine

Coast Guard is the half-yearly national magazine of The Australian Volunteer Coast Guard Association, Australia’s largest independent boating education, search and rescue organisation. All Coast Guard members receive the magazine which also is freely distributed at public courses in seamanship, radio operation and navigation conducted by the Association. The AVCGA draws on a wide base of contacts within the volunteer marine rescue network and statutory rescue authorites to cover the safety scene. The organisation has access to the resources of overseas search and rescue and education groups such as the Royal National Lifeboat Institution in the U.K. and the U.S. Coast Guard. It also is a member of the International Lifeboat Federation. August is the deadline for the next issue. If you would like to contribute reports and photographs of assists or activities at flotillas, first contact The Editor with your idea or digital photos.
