Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue - Saving Lives on the Water.

As an integral part of the Canadian Search and Rescue (SAR) System, the mission of Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue (RCM-SAR) is to save lives on the water.
Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue (RCM-SAR) is a volunteer organization of over 1000 people from many backgrounds who give up a great deal of their own time to train, be trained, and be on standby, in case they are needed to respond to a marine emergency on the water. These volunteers have the use of modern, well-equipped rescue vessels that are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Our volunteers are spread throughout 46 stations in British Columbia. The funding for the rescue vessels as well as the crews' equipment and safety gear is provided to a large degree by B.C. Gaming, as well as through significant corporate contributions, legacies, private donations and fundraising. Many thanks goes to these contributors.
RCM-SAR's area of operations is based on the Pacific coast of British Columbia which has more than 27,000 kilometres of rugged coastline, over 6,000 islands (most uninhabited), and approximately 450,000 square kilometres of internal and offshore waters. It is a challenge to provide search and rescue response capability to such a large area, and our unpaid professionals meet the challenge to assist those in peril on the sea with determination and pride.

Would you be able to tell me how to get into something like this? I would love to join a Canadian star team but I don't know where to start or what I need.

Running down the dock without a PFD is unsafe.
