Public Service
PUBLIC SERVICE

America's Boating Club (United States Power Squadrons) works with the public and allied organizations to promote safe boating through education. We also provide related services to the individual boaters.

Here, you can get a Vessel Safety Check for your boat, a Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number for your marine radio, and other services. You do not need to be a member to access these services.

Allied organizations can register to attend our national meetings, find out more about our Squadron Emergency Response teams, and discover other information to support inter-organization collaboration.

Find out where and when they meet, their local course schedule, the next events, and begin your relationship with a great local boating organization.

Nearby squadrons will be notified of your interest and will be encouraged to contact you.
