Grounding is more often a minor incovenience than a true danger. Only if there is inmediate danger is when the Coast Guard respond. A danger to the people on it or to the vessel itself.
It is often advised not to attempt to pull the vessel off unless it is clear that this one will float on its own. The Coast Guard will definitely don´t do that because there is a risk to harm not only the vessel aground but also the Guard´s vessel would be in danger. If the vessel is aground or up in the rocks and there is not any harm to the structure the Coast Guard will most likely tell you to wait for the tide to rise.
So to clarify a little the requirement for coast guard assistance when a vessel is aground is when the vessel or the crew are in inmediate danger. If the coast guard sees this, it is his/her job to do anything they can to help the people on it and try to fix the vessel if this one presents a major risk for other people.
