ABOUT US

Welcome!


We are AMERICA'S BOATING CLUB of Snohomish County  aka as Everett Sail and Power Squadron. We are a non-profit boating safety education organization. Our charter is to provide safe boating education to the public and our members. We promote and encourage boating by offering a variety of classes such as basic boating, boat handling, piloting, weather and navigation in the Northwest. We want to help you increase your knowledge in boating by offering classes and social activities, such as rendezvous and cruises throughout the Pacific Northwest. Join us in the classroom or on the water.

 

Are you perhaps interested in joining the United States Power Squadrons? We are a terrific group of people who enjoy learning about boating and meeting like-minded folks who are also passionate about boating. Some of our members do not yet have boats, some have RV's. We are a very diverse group. We'd love for you to join our squadron, come to a meeting, and be a part of our group!

 

We meet the first Tuesday of most every month (except July/August) at the The Fireman's Hall in Everett.  The dinner's are potluck with dessert provided by the bridge officer's.  The meetings generally have fascinating speakers. We host rendezvous and offer education/classes throughout the year. 

 

We hope you will come to check out our Squadron.

Welcome, On the Water Enthusiasts!

 

We are Everett Sail and Power Squadron, America’s Boating Club of Snohomish County.  Our national organization, the United States Power Squadrons®, is the oldest and largest boating organization in the United States. We are a volunteer organization that promotes boating skills and safety through public and member education. The year 2023 found us celebrating 75 years as a local organization. In 2024, we were awarded the BoatU.S. Foundation’s Distinguished Service Award, competing against 300 other USPS squadrons. This was a true honor and demonstration of our volunteerism and involvement in the community.

Our members are both sailors and power boaters (and even land yachters), including folks preparing to buy their first boat; owners with towable craft, long distance cruisers, and live-a-boards. Meetings are held at Firefighters Hall on Hewitt Avenue in Everett or occasionally virtually via Zoom or hybrid.  Educational courses are held at the Port of Everett’s Blue Heron Room, virtually via Zoom or hybrid, and on the water. Free Vessel Safety checks can be performed year-round by online request.

We teach and promote boating education, perform civic service projects around the county, and socialize with each other as recreational boaters both on and off the water. More information on what we offer can be found by navigating through this website.  In addition, we invite you to join our meetings, become a member and become part of the fellowship and camaraderie that we enjoy!
