 Flotilla 17 is a group of Coast Guard Auxiliarists in the San Francisco Bay Area. We meet once a month in and around San Francisco. The flotilla is the basic organizational unit of the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary. Auxiliarists are people just like you who have chosen to volunteer their time and talents to the service of their country in a non-military organization that acts as a "force-multiplier" for the United States Coast Guard. We perform missions alongside active service Coast Guard men and women with the exception of combat and direct law enforcement roles. We also provide Auxiliary-specific tasks promoting boating safety, preventative vessel examinations and public education related to the protection of lives and safety of the environment. We welcome you to browse our new web site, read about our programs, sign up for one of our classes, request a vessel safety check, or perhaps even join our organization. You'll find all of the links you'll need on the left. If you are looking for another part of our organization, the menu along the top of the page will help you navigate the entire Auxiliary. Members of our flotilla may sign in or register for an account may use the "Member Access" button to the left. New Users can also register here. If you have any questions or require assistance, please use the "Contact Us" link on the left and select Communications Services to send your message to me directly and I'll respond as soon as possible. Welcome Aboard! Desmond ThorssonFSO-CS 1-7 |
