As part of the U.S. Coast Guard's Modernization Act, the Coast Guard Auxiliary realigned its units to better conform with the Coast Guard's safety, security, and stewardship missions.

U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 35-6 Chicago (formerly Flotilla 2-6) continues to proudly serve the greater Chicagoland area - just as it has for 10+ years!

Flotilla 35-6 has been recognized as one of the "Most Active Flotilla" in its division, providing public educational programs, vessel safety checks, and assisting the U.S. Coast Guard in non-law enforcement programs such as safety patrols, search and rescue, and marine environmental protection.

Individuals or groups interested in recreational boating safety are invited to take advantage of our educational programs, free vessel safety checks, or even explore becoming a member of our flotilla.

Flotilla 35-6 Chicago meets at 7 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of every other month at Grace Place, 637 South Dearborn Street, in Chicago's South Loop/Printer's Row neighborhood. Visitors are welcome, but please contact us for more information.
