About the naples Sail AND Power Squadron

Chartered in 1967, the Naples Sail and Power Squadron is dedicated to enhance boating safety by making educational programs available to all recreational boaters. We are a non-governmental, not-for-profit organization and are funded by over 250 members and volunteer supporters’ work.

Our members come from all occupations and their great common interest is boats and seeing them operated for maximum pleasure and safety. The Squadron is a private, not-for-profit fraternal organization.

Our Squadron is a unit of the "United States Power Squadrons®" (USPS). USPS® is composed of over 450 squadrons nationwide and overseas. The squadrons are organized into geographical districts. We are part of District 22, located on the west coast of Florida.

The backbone of the Squadron life is its progressive boating courses, which are offered to boaters, of all ages, in Naples and Bonita Springs, Florida. We have an active calendar throughout the year to accommodate elective and advanced boating courses for our members as well as boating courses open to the public.

Equally active are our social and organizational events. The LOG, our local monthly publication, keeps members abreast of Squadron activities and USPS Ensign Magazine covers subjects of national interest. Become a NSPS member today.

We enjoy participating with our fellow members on the water and in the classroom, and we strive to recruit members from all boating backgrounds, from families, fishing enthusiasts, sailing aficionados, operators of personal watercrafts and more.

The Squadron extends its knowledge to non-members by offering complimentary vessel safety checks and fire education. In addition, we support other organizations’ sponsored events that further our mission of enhancing safety in recreational boating.
