Local squadrons offer boating safety courses on a regular basis to
boaters in our communities. These courses are open to the public and
there is no age limit for participants. USPS squadrons have offered
these courses for over half a century and have educated more than 3
million boaters to date. Successfully completing a USPS boating safety
course meets the educational requirements for boat operation in all
states.
In a cooperative program with the US Coast Guard Auxiliary, squadron
members conduct courtesy Vessel Safety Checks of boats at the request of
their owners. To learn more about this program, and how to get your
boat checked, click here.
Our members also help the National Ocean Service keep our nautical
charts accurate by reporting chart corrections, and our local squadrons
participate in many other community improvement projects.
