One of
the Coast Guard Auxiliary's cornerstone missions has always been educating
the public on boating safety. Our classes will not only give you valuable
information, but allow you to interact and work one-on-one with seasoned
boaters. Your local division and its constituent flotillas periodically
offer educational opportunities for the boating public. Upcoming classes
are listed in the table below; either call the telephone number or
e-mail the contact listed
in the far right column for more specific details.
