This is the web home of Flotilla 93, which serves the Lake Gaston area of North Carolina and Virginia.  We are an all-civilian organization that serves the boating public through public education, vessel safety checks, and water patrols.  Some of our duties include:

• Search and Rescue Operations to aid distressed boaters.
• Advising boaters of safety issues concerning them and their boats, stressing Virginia and North Carolina legal and common sense requirements.
• Performing Safety Checks of boats.
• Supporting Virginia and North Carolina Aids To Navigation (ATON) programs by reporting missing or damaged buoys.
• Supporting our environmental program by removing debris from the lake and reporting oil or chemical spills to local authorities.
• Assisting local agencies who sanction regattas, on the water competition, and public displays such as the July 4 fireworks. 

We also maintain a radio watch on VHF Channel 16 while the patrol is on the water. 

Flotilla 93 meets on the first Tuesday of each month, at 7:00pm.  Meetings are held at Flotilla Headquarters on SR 1214 in Henrico, NC (1/4 mile west of SR 46).    The public is welcome to attend!    (Need directions?  Click here.)
