About Us
The Bellingham Sail & Power Squadron is a unit of the United States Power Squadrons® It was the tenth to be incorporated into USPS® District 16 with a charter date of 17 January 1959. District 16 is made up of 15 squadrons in Washington State.
Organized in 1914, USPS is a non profit, educational organization dedicated to making boating safer and more enjoyable by teaching classes in seamanship, navigation and related subjects. Our members are boating families who contribute to their communities by promoting safe boating through education. We enjoy participating with our fellow members on the water and in the classroom. USPS has some 60,000 members organized into 450 squadrons across the country and in some US territories. USPS is the world's largest non-profit boating organization and has been honored by three US presidents for its civic contributions.
Bellingham
