Can I call you directly to launch the helicopter?
No, you can not call Guardian SAR directly to request our rescue services. You will need to use the 911 service or the Channel 16 for the USCG and advise them you are in distress. They will evaluate the situation and look at the resources available. They will then choose the right resources to engage in the rescue and Guardian SAR may be the one they choose.
