When vessel and crew are in immediate danger
when the vessel or crew are in immediate danger
when a vessel is aground is when the vessel or the crew are in inmediate danger.
If a vessel is aground on another boat, it must have had a collision with the boat it is aground on. The coastguard will therefore be investigating the scene with a view to prosecuting one or other of the vessels captains.
The vessel is in distress
Where is the vessel aground? Is there an environmental risk? Is there a potential loss of life? Does the vessel aground constitute a hazard to navigation? The US Coast Guard is not a salvage company. More detail in your question would help define the answer.
Running aground, resulting in being "grounded", or aground. Run Aground. Should a vessel run aground and there be a tide that has receded enough to show the sea bottom, the vessel is said to be "high and dry." Also known as "Beached"
The Coast Guard will respond if there is eminent danger to persons or the vessel. If there is eminent danger they will take the persons off the vessel if possible or have them airlifted. They will not attempt to pull the vessel off unless it is clear that it will float free. This is because they may further damage the vessel or put their own vessel and themselves in danger. If the vessel is hard aground or up on the rocks they will most likely tell you to wait for the next high tide, and call a towing company or salvage company. This may cost you a lot unless you have one of the subscription towing services.
Remain tied to the dock until you are competent to handle the vessel.
