Welcome to Poverty
Bay Power Squadron.
Please "cruise"
our web site to learn more about us and our national organization, The United
States Power Squadron (R).
Our mission is promoting fun and safe recreational boating and water related activities. We serve the boating public in South King County and North Pierce County, an area including South Seattle to North Tacoma and from Puget Sound to the slopes of the Cascade Mountains, encompassing twelve different cities.
Our members and families are boaters, anglers, and sports people of all
types. We grow and learn through continuous education in the classroom and
through discussion with other members. We offer public boating classes
throughout the year. In addition, our members teach youth on the water safety
in cooperation with our public school system.
We encourage the public to learn more about us and to take our basic boating
class. Students who complete our public class generally qualify for a 10% boat
insurance discount with their insurance companies and also may become a member
of the Power Squadron. We actively seek new members to continue learning, to
promote safe boating and to teach others.
We have a social side as well.
We have ten dinner meetings and up to ten boating events each year. Special
events include our Change of Watch, Dessert Auction, Fall Barbeque, Nautical
Auction & Sale and Christmas Party.
For the curious,
You may contact us by email at boating@pbps.org for public boating class schedules and registration or any other inquiry.
