Coastguard Clyde rescue vessel upgrade appeal
Clyde, Otago
Coastguard NZ is currently upgrading its rescue vessels nationally, mostly with AC36 America's Cup outboard support units. Coastguard Clyde's SAR work is based in/on Central Otago lakes, dams and rivers so our objective is to have a custom jet boat built by a kiwi firm. Covid has restricted local fund-raising efforts throughout 2020-22, thus we are appealing to the public for support in addition to that from Coastguard NZ, local funders and our own savings. Your support for our charity 'saving lives on water' is most appreciated.
CGC volunteers provide water safety & rescue services in Central Otago. We are currently fundraising for a replacement Rescue Vessel (ours is now oldest in the fleet). As Covid restricts our usual fundraising, we hope you can assist us via Givealittle.
Our old ex-Sumner RV needs to retire (now oldest in the fleet), so a new jet-powered rescue boat is planned which will be funded from Coastguard, regional funders and public donations (eg Givealittle). We fully intend that our Target WILL be met !!!
Thank you folks - much appreciated
