Sea Scout Ship Dawn Treader (SSS244), Welcomes You!

What are Sea Scouts?
Some refer to us as "the best kept secret in Boy Scouts". Sea Scouts are young men and women (ages 14 -20) who are interested in nautical skills and other high adventure activities. You don't need any previous experience with boats. We'll teach you everything you need to know. But we do recomend that you know how to swim. Here are just a few of the things Sea Scouts like to do:


We, the ship, currently own one power boat, and one sail boat. We go on many excursions on Jordan and Kerr Lake.

A youth leader called the Boatswain ("bo-sun") leads the Ship and is assisted by a Boatswain's Mate. The adult leader, equivalent to a Scoutmaster, is the "Skipper". He's assisted by several other adult officers called Mates who also serve as liaisons to the youth leaders. The youth and adult leaders work with the Ship's crew to plan activities, and to provide training.

How do I join?
