With
nearly 30,000 members, the U.S. Coast Guard
Auxiliary actively provides safety patrols on area
waterways and regularly meets with the boating
public at marinas and in classrooms. We also
directly assist
the U.S. Coast Guard in non-law
enforcement programs such as search and rescue, and
marine environmental protection. Flotilla 84 offers a variety of boating classes for beginning, intermediate and advanced boaters who want to learn new skills and safe boating practices.
