Flotilla 35-16 Member Training

Flotilla 35-16 provides many opportunities for member training beginning with new members and ongoing with senior members. All members consult regularly with the Flotilla Commander and Member Training officer, usually at the monthly flotilla meetings.

Operations training including preparation for crew and coxswain qualification is provided. Classroom and on the water training opportunities are provided. There are several USCG Auxiliary patrol boat facilities operated by members who provide guidance and instruction for activies on the water. 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, training was done on-line using teleconferences. This was remarkably successful and many members took part. Solicitations to join on-line classes are regularly sent to members encouraging them to join. Several members have been successful in attaining AUXOP status through the on-line classes.
