Panama City Beach, Florida's Flotilla 19 is very proud to be part of a network of 30,000+ all volunteer lifesavers.  Serving Bay County and its surrounding waterways Flotilla 19 conducts many missions in public boating safety and public outreach through both boating classes and appearances with "Coastie" the safety boat. 

Flotilla members are trained in boating skills and seamanship so they can conduct patrols for many purposes. Missions are varied and may include search and rescue, monitoring aids to navigation, water sampling and waterway watch. 

Flotilla 19 is located on the Naval Support Activity (NSA) base in Panama City Beach, FL.  On NSA we co-locate with the U.S. Coast Guard Station, Panama City and the law enforcement agency of Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission. We work as a team to promote safe boating, protection of our water ways and resources.  Monthly meeting are held on the 3rd Wednesday of every month. We start off with a social with meal at 1800 hours (6:00PM). Food is prepared by one of the flotilla members. 

We invite anyone interested in learning more about the Flotilla and our missions to attend our meetings.  If interested in coming to a meeting please contact one of the Flotilla's officers.  Contact information is located on the Flotilla Officers page.  We're proud to have been the recipients of the "Most Outstanding Flotilla" in District 8, Coastal Region which includes all of New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, southern half of Alabama, the Florida Panhandle and the southwestern corner of Georgia.  We invite you to become a part of our exciting and effective all volunteer lifesaving team.
