A Message from the Flotilla Commander


The Coast Guard considers the Auxiliary its primary resource for recreational boating safety outreach and prevention and each Coast Guard district around the nation has established a senior officer and staff to provide tight liaison and coordination between the active-duty Coast Guard and the various Auxiliary units in that district.

As part of Team Coast Guard the Auxiliary conducts safety patrols on Lake Michigan and local waterways, assists in Search and Rescue, teach boating safety classes, conduct free vessel safety checks for the public, provide boating safety literature to dealers, as well as many other activities related to recreational boating safety.

Our on going support all Auxiliary members train to become qualified communication Watch Standers, Vessel Examiners, Aviation Observers and Flight Crew, Boat Crew Qualified and Culinary Assistants. We serve wherever the Coast Guard needs take us from Shore Stations to National Cutters. 

Membership in the Auxiliary is open to U.S. citizens age 17 years and older. We are organized into 16 districts nationwide, comprised of 171 divisions with nearly 980 flotillas. No matter where you live, there is a flotilla near you.
