The mission of
the Power Squadron VSC Program is to minimize the loss of life, personal
injury and property damage associated with the use of recreational boats.
Our VSC program
helps to achieve voluntary compliance with federal, state and local laws,
particularly regarding the carriage of safety equipment. It also
heightens the boaters awareness of safety issues through a one-on-one
contact by volunteer vessel examiners.
All our
examiners are USPS/USCG Aux. certified and will gladly perform a free safety
check of your vessel. There is no penalty should your vessel fail an
exam and you will be told how to correct any deficiencies for a re-exam.
