Promoting boating safety is the job of the

U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary.

For Portland, Maine and Surrounding Areas

The Casco Bay Flotilla presents most of the courses that are offered by the U. S. Coast Guard Auxiliary. We do this in conjunction with Southern Maine Community College's - Continuing Studies Courses. Our classes start at the college in January and September of each year. The college starts taking registration on the first Monday of December for courses that start in January and the first Monday in August for courses that start in September at 207-741- 5758 and registration remains open through the second nights class. We offer Advanced Coastal Navigation and Boating Skills and Seamanship at the college. January semester we also offer Sailing Skills & Seamanship at the College.

We also offer a shorter version of Boating Skills and Seamanship in the late spring in other locations. You can check our Course Start Dates page early March for more information on these late spring courses.
