Welcome To Lake Norman Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 26-01
The Coast Guard Auxiliary
on Lake Norman, is dedicated to helping the public with Boater Safety to the greater Charlotte area.
From Public Education classes, Vessel Safety Checks, Specialized
Training, and Boater Assistance. Charlotte area Auxiliary members conduct safety
patrols on Lake Norman, assist in Search and Rescue, teach boating
safety classes, conduct free vessel safety checks for the public,
provide boating safety literature to dealers, as well as many other
activities related to recreational boating safety.
The Coast Guard considers
the Auxiliary its primary resource for recreational boating safety
outreach and prevention (see the message "From the Commandant"),
and each Coast Guard district around the nation has established a
senior officer and staff to provide tight liaison and coordination
between the active-duty Coast Guard and the various Auxiliary units in
that district.
