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. 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. Each squadron's activities involve
the three primary objectives of USPS: community service, continuing education, and
enjoying the friendship and camaraderie of our fellow members.

The Friday Harbor Power Squadron, a unit of the United States Power Squadrons, is
centered in the San Juan Islands and is one of
17 squadrons in Washington. We are
primarily a fraternal boating club emphasizing recreational boating safety through
education and civic service while providing fellowship for our members.
Currently the Squadron has 140 members and
over 50 boats, but it's not necessary to own
a boat to become a member.
