Does
your vessel meet the requirements of safe boating law? Do you
have the necessary safety equipment on board to ensure that you
and your family will be safe at sea? Is your safety equipment
operational and up to date? Contact our Vessel Examination
Program staff for a free Vessel Safety Check. A Vessel Safety
Check (VSC) is a free examination of your boat. VSCs are usually
conducted at Santa Cruz Small Craft Harbor or other sites in the
Santa Cruz area. Your boat will be well examined by one of our
specially trained Coast Guard Auxiliarists, and you will be
provided with a report of your vessel's compliance with U.S.
Coast Guard regulations regarding boating safety features and
equipment. There is no penalty if your boat fails to meet full
compliance. You will simply be given a report listing the
deficiencies found, along with encouragement to make corrections
on your own. Your boat may at your request be rechecked at some
convenient time in the future. For further information on how
you can get your boat examined by one of our assigned Vessel Safety Examiners,
whether your boat is in Santa Cruz or Moss Landing, please send e-mail to:
[email protected] or

What We Do
SURFACE
OPERATIONS - Flotilla Members perform safety and
aids-to-navigation patrols in the Monterey Bay area. Auxiliary
vessels and their crews work under the control of the Coast
Guard, and aid in search and rescue (SAR), marine safety, and
other missions. Auxiliary crew members and Coxswains qualify
using the same boat crew training manual as used by Coast Guard
Regulars and Reservists, and must satisfy annual currency
maintenance. Auxiliarists are volunteers.
BOATING SAFETY -
Auxiliarists from 06-10 teach classes to members of the general
public and to members of the Auxiliary in Santa Cruz. Public
classes include boating skills and seamanship (basic power),
sailing fundamentals (basic sail), and basic and advanced
coastal navigation. Auxiliarists also provide voluntary vessel
safety checks and conduct other programs to enhance boating
safety.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION -
Auxiliarists from 06-10 and other
flotillas join Coast Guard active duty and reservists to aid
NOAA and NMFS in managing the Monterey Bay National Marine
Sanctuary. Auxiliarists are deployed on Coast Guard Auxiliary
surface and air missions.
COAST GUARD MISSION SUPPORT -
Auxiliarists also volunteer to serve alongside regular and
reserve members of the Coast Guard in operational and
administrative programs. Flotilla members serve as radio
watchstanders, and have served onboard Monterey and Santa Cruz
based US Coast Guard vessels.
