Flotilla 52 of Jupiter, Florida

Serving the Greater Jupiter Area

The United States Coast Guard Auxiliary is the civilian component of the U.S. Coast Guard. The Auxiliary was authorized in 1939 by an act of Congress as the U.S. Coast Guard Reserves. Congress later amended the act with passage of the Auxiliary and Reserve Act of 1941, which designated the Reserve as a military branch of the active service, while the civilian volunteers became the Auxiliary.

We in Flotilla 52 work directly in support of the men and women of U.S. Coast Guard Station Lake Worth Inlet.

In addition to assisting the Coast Guard in Search and Rescue missions and in training exercises, we perform courtesy vessel checks, teach boating safety classes, maintain relationships with local marine stores and marinas, and routinely patrol local waterways looking for navigational hazards and pollution problems.

The Four Cornerstones of the Auxiliary:

  • Courtesy Vessel Checks
  • Boating Safety Courses
  • U.S. Coast Guard, State and Local Support Operations
  • Auxiliary Fellowship
