Offshore protectors (10)
I believe the answer is:
coastguard
(Other definitions for coastguard that I've seen before include "Maritime force for defence, rescue, prevention of smuggling etc" , "Member of) marine rescue organisation" , "One on the lookout for smugglers" .)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
