Individual Membership

Knowing boats means knowing things go wrong

From flat batteries and mechanical issues to electrical faults and other on-water mishaps, breakdowns can happen when you least expect them.

For just $150 a year, a Coastguard Membership gives you access to non-urgent on-water assistance, helping you avoid unexpected call-out fees and get back under way sooner. Don't risk paying $400 per hour for a non-member call-out when a Coastguard Membership could pay for itself in a single incident.
