Abstract
The avowed purpose of the U. S. Power Squadrons is to educate small boat users in safe boating practices and to inform participants in water activities on how to properly enjoy water sports and at the same time respect the rights of others. Over 350 local Squadrons situated across the country offer various courses at no charge to the public covering such diverse subjects as small boat handling, charts, piloting, rules of the road, and even celestial navigation. It is unfortunate that not enough persons are aware of this program, and of those who do register for classes, many do not complete the courses in which they enrolled.
