Welcome to the Gabriola Island Power and Sail Squadron

We are a unit of the Canadian Power and Sail Squadrons (CPS – ECP): a group of volunteers teaching safe boating. We want to share with boaters, and those interested in boating, whether they own a boat or not, the competencies and local knowledge that will make leisure water activities the best they can be. 

Our Squadron is continuing to offer a wide variety of courses in 2023 (online, self-study and classroom courses).  Please refer to the Course Information page for more information and registration.

Interested learners are requested to contact Agathe Gaulin (seo-gabriolaisland@cps-ecp.org), Nigel Wells (nigelwells@shaw.ca), or John Van Praet (johnvanpraet@hotmail.com) to discuss possible courses and how to sign up.
