Volunteer Coastguard boats

Volunteers from the Whitianga, Pauanui and Whangamata Coastguard units are getting in behind the Tairua Boat show which is being held from 13th-15 August. They’ll be taking part at the Boat Show with a stand where you can meet the volunteer teams, get excellent boating tips and the opportunity to book a Bar Crossing familiarisation trip.

We’ll be there supporting the Tairua Boat show and showcasing what our local volunteer Coastguard units do. We’re looking forward to meeting any members of the public who are interested in boating or have any marine questions that we could assist with. We’ll be showcasing what our Coastguard organisation does in our local area with some great  education and fun things for the kids.
