6342 Beach Rescue Chopper

6342 Beach Rescue Chopper is a Flight set released in 1993. It contains an amphibious rescue helicopter with pontoons, a small sailing catamaran and three minifigures, including the skipper of the boat and the crew of the chopper. It has 143 pieces.
== Description ==
The helicopter has a large compartment behind the pilot seat. From a winch at the interior runs a rope over an extendable arm at the opening at the chopper's left. Beneath the cockpit is a rotatable array of searchlights. The helicopter is labeled with the LEGO Coast Guard logo of the early 1990s.
The catamaran sailboat has a rotable mast with a sail that was usually seen on windsurf boards. Both the skipper of the catamaran and one of the coast guards wear lifevests.
== Notes ==
The crew of the chopper wears the red coast guard uniform that was established with 6387 Coastal Rescue Base in 1989, but was eventually superceded by a newer version that first appeared in 6338 Hurricane Harbor in 1995.
