What we've been doing


 

Patriotic Festival
 
 On 28 May 2022,  Flotilla 59 assisted the Coast Guard and Norfolk Police Department by patrolling the area off Hospital Point for the Patriotic Festival.  The facility, Pressure Relief, was crewed by Chuck Mullen and George Langdon from Flotilla 59 and Patricia Eldredge from Flotilla 31.  Our primary mission was to remind boaters of the 5 MPH speed limit in the area off Waterside and to render emergency assistance if needed.  We performed our patrol in the late afternoon and early evening.
