Dear Editor and Auxiliary Member and Recreational Boater,

Below please find articles that relate to either Recreational Boating Safety, Marine Safety, Search and Rescue or Environmental Protection. Each of these "missions" are key to the work of C O A S T G U A R D F O R C E S (the United States Coast Guard, Coast Guard Reserve and the Coast Guard Auxiliary).
You may and should use them in your media/web/newsletter outlets. Please provide proper attribution and feel free to use them at whim.
Should you publish any article, an e-mail detailing which issue and/or web page would be appreciated. Send e-mail to
MediaRelease@auxpa.org.
Additionally, should you have a specific request for an article, we would be pleased to discuss it.
Thank you for your interest in Recreational Boating Safety and the Coast Guard/Coast Guard Auxiliary's efforts in making boating the safest it can be!
