Welcome to the Reno Flotilla 11-03
Sierra Division 11 - 11th Coast Guard District NR

The Reno Flotilla is a unit of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary.  We serve the public by promoting recreational boating safety through programs such as voluntary Vessel Safety Checks, Boating Safety Classes, Safety Patrols, and many other services.  You can join this vital service organization and help support your local boating community.

Flotilla Facility on Patrol on Pyramid Lake

Our Flotilla supports recreational boating safety primarily in Northern Nevada and wherever else we can be of service.  Operational Patrols include Safety, Security, and Search and Rescue missions. Boating Safety Classes and Vessel Safety Checks are programs that help keep recreational boaters safe on the water.  We distribute literature and information at events and marine facilities to increase boating safety awareness.
