Boating on Connecticut's waters may seem easy with the modern technology of radar and GPS, but what happens if these electronics fail? Could you navigate safely in the fog without these?
Meriden Power Squadron
presents educational courses, programs and seminars that offer boating enthusiasts greater safety and
enjoyment while participating in their favorite boating activities.
There are eleven primary courses for members covering seamanship, piloting, electronic navigation, celestial navigation, weather, engine maintenence, marine electronics and cruise planning.
All upcoming courses will be listed on the calendar page.
For non-members, we offer a Basic Boating Course that is NASBLA certified and required by law to operate a vessel in CT. Several insurance companies offer discounts for boat operators passing similar courses. In addition, there are USPS guides and seminars available to both members and non members.
Some of the guides are also available from Libraries, bookstores and Marine supply stores. They are easy to identify and cary the logos listed below.
