This is an unofficial web page maintained by the Flotilla Commander since March 2000. We are a volunteer organization that supports the U.S. Coast Guard, by providing Public Education, Courtesy Marine Examinations, Operations, and other special services. Public Education Flotilla 66 offers a number of different Public Education classes in 2001. A nominal charge is made for texts and training materials.
Instruction is free.
Many insurance companies offer discounts on boat insurance to individuals who successfully complete one of these courses. This is an audit of safety equipment on your boat or personal water craft and a mini-course in boating safety equipment. Only you are told of the results. Our equipment list is usually above and beyond what is required by most state boating laws. If your boat passes the exam, you get a decal you can put on your boat.
