Coast Guard Coast Guard is currently a subtheme of the City theme . From 1976 to 2008 , Coast Guard vessels and personnel were released in several specific coast guard themed sets . It was not until 2008 that the theme officially became a subtheme of City . History . The first LEGO sets to feature the Coast Guard were the LEGOLAND set 369 Coast Guard Station from 1976 , and two very similar Town sets , 575 Canada Coast Guard Station and 575 U . S . Coast Guard Station from 1978 . The first set to sport the current Coast Guard logo of a red and white life ring in a blue coat of arms was 6387 Coastal Rescue Base from 1989 . The minifigure s from this set wore bright red overalls and caps . 1991 was the first time the Coast Guard was equipped with a ship , 6353 Coastal Cutter . The ship was coloured in white and blue , which were already the established base colours for the 1989 set . The Minifigures wore black and had torso pieces that were common for policemen of that era . In 1992 , the Coast Guard logo made an appearance next to a lifeguard in a Paradisa set . One year later , the Coast Guard was given a rather large helicopter : the 6342 Beach Rescue Chopper included Minifigures in the same red colours as in the 1989 set . In 1995 , a new Coast Guard building was released . 6338 Hurricane Harbor used the same color scheme as the previous building , though the colors were inverted . The walls were now white and the window frames were blue . The set featured specialized coast guard minifigures with grey torso pieces and blue caps , both emblazoned with the established Coast Guard logo . One year later the Coast Guard got a new ship . The 4022 C26 Sea Cutter was released as part of the Boats line . It had a similar color scheme to the Coastal Cutter from four years previous , and included minifigures with the same design as in the Hurricane Harbor set . That same year , a Coast Guard Minifigure appeared next to a lifeguard tower sporting the life ring logo in the 6334 Wave Jump Racers set . With the release of the new Res - Q theme in 1998 , which covered most typical rescue tasks , the classic Coast Guard was temporarily replaced . However , the next release came one year later with some changes . The set 6435 Coast Guard HQ included minifigures with a new uniform that had blue torso pieces and the Coast Guard logo swapped the blue coat of arms with a triangle . The building reintroduced the color scheme of the Coastal Rescue Base from 1989 , and was the last Coast Guard set to feature the classic blue and white colors for buildings and ships . In 2003 , some World City sets sported the familiar life ring logo , this time enclosed in a diamond shape . The buildings and vessels also sported a new color scheme . Instead of blue and white , they were now yellow and black , as in the Res - Q line . The new headquarters was labeled " Coast Watch " . The next Coast Guard release came in 2008 , the first year in which the theme was officially recognized as a Subtheme of the still relatively new City theme . The theme came with 8 new sets . The new Coast Guard logo resembled the diamond shaped logo from 2003 , but this time the color Orange was prominently featured on both vessels and buildings . The new uniform consisted of yellow torso pieces sporting the Coast Guard logo and blue arms and legs with blue helmets or caps . Another wave , this time with five more sets , of Coast Guard sets was released in June 2013 , with new vehicles including a jet ski , a truck and small boat , two helicopters , a plane , a large boat , and a small robotic submersible . Logo . Almost all of the incarnations of the Coast Guard possessed a similar logo . It featured a life ring with white and red segments , that based on either a blue coat of arms , a triangle , or , later , a diamond shape . Vehicles and facilities . Buildings : Since the introduction of the first Coast Guard logo in 1989 , a total of five Coast Guard bases were released . The 6387 Coastal Rescue Base from 1989 was a relatively ordinary building with no relation to water and , but for its blue coloring , could just as well be a Police or Fire station . A new base did not appear until 6338 Hurricane Harbor was released in 1995 . This was built on quay platforms like previous harbor themed sets and was situated directly at the shore , an attribute it would share with all later Coast Guard stations . The Coast Guard HQ from 1999 was more juniorized but retained the established white and blue color scheme and included a large boat , along with other vehicles . 7047 Coast Watch HQ from 2003 was a more complex set with more details and was mainly yellow and black . The 2008 set 7739 Coast Guard Patrol Boat & Tower consists of a tower with a large jetty , and served as a supplement to the large Coast Guard ship that was the main feature of that particular set . The second base from that year was 4210 Coast Guard Platform , a large offshore platform on support struts with a helipad , crane and control tower . With no new bases released in 2013 , this was the last base to be released so far in the theme . Ships : The first major boat in the Coast Guard theme was the 6353 Coastal Cutter from 1991 . It featured a mechanism to tow a small dinghy , which could be stored in the ship ' s aft . The 4022 C26 Sea Cutter was a floating boat from 1996 . It was quite large , but didn ' t have any special features . Next , a smaller ship was released in 6338 Hurricane Harbor . Another large boat , which also possessed a watertight hull , was included in the 6435 Coast Guard HQ from 1999 . After this year , no more major Coast Guard ships were released until 2008 , when 7739 Coast Guard Patrol Boat & Tower brought the largest Coast Guard ship to date . The vessel had an emergency room and a crane as well as a watertight hull . In the same year , another boat was included in 7726 Coast Guard Truck with Speed Boat . Although it was just a rigid - hull , " inflatable " boat , it was the largest and most realistic vessel of its kind and was bigger than most of the earlier ships . Helicopters : Although most Coast Guard base sets also included rescue helicopters , these were usually small , one - man choppers with a winch . Larger helicopters included 6342 Beach Rescue Chopper from 1993 , an amphibious helicopter with pontoons , and 7044 Rescue Chopper from 2003 , which was one the few helicopters that could fit two minifigures at once in the cockpit . Both helicopters were equipped with small rescue cranes and had enough room for additional minifigures besides the pilots . The largest helicopter to date was included in 7738 Coast Guard Helicopter & Life Raft and was equipped with a motorized winch . Another helicopter appeared in 60013 Coast Guard Helicopter from 2013 , this one also having a motorized winch .
