For over 100 years Sea Scouting has promoted better citizenship and
improved members’ boating skills through instruction and practice in
water safety, boating skills, outdoor, social, service experiences, and
knowledge of our maritime heritage.
The Sea Scout Program
Sea Scout units– called ships- are established all across the country on
oceans, bays, rivers, and lakes. They provide limitless opportunities
and exciting challenges that you won’t find anywhere else. Sea Scouts is a
place to grow and learn, find adventure, and build long lasting
friendships. Sea Scout Ship "Sea Eagle" encompasses northern Utah particularly
Cache Valley and the communities of Logan, Providence, Millville,
Nibley, Mendon, Wellsville, Smithfield, Richmond and other towns north
and south. Sailing and boating takes place on Hyrum reservoir and Bear Lake.
The best part of Sea Scouts is cruising and mastering the skills you
learn with your shipmates. On board a vessel you share hands-on
experiences as helmsman and navigator, lookout and cook, sail handler
and engineer. You and your shipmates will plan and conduct your annual
cruise – summer camp underway. Imagine sailing the Caribbean, cruising
to Alaska, fishing, swimming, diving, snorkeling or anything else your
ship wants to do!
Scouting
Sea Scouts is youth led and adult mentored. You and your shipmates lead
your Sea Scout program. Elected youth leaders plan and conduct the
program and adult leaders guide and support your efforts as you learn
important leadership and life skills. As you gain experience you will
have the opportunity to contribute as a leader in your ship. Sea Scouts
are recognized and rewarded for the things they learn and do. You can
earn valuable certifications in SCUBA, boating safety, lifesaving, and
CPR, as well as advance in rank from Apprentice to Quartermaster. Each
certification and level of advancement marks your growth as a sailor and a
leader.
Service
Sea Scouts take service very seriously. Sea Scouts perform various kinds
of service from service to their ship, to community service. They
participate service such as river or beach clean-up efforts, food
drives, and youth programs. Sea Scouts also participate in flag
ceremonies, and serve as honor guards at various community events.
Social
Sea Scouts provides opportunities to share experiences with other young
people who share your interests. As your ship participates in fun and
exciting activities like sailing regattas, rowing races, and rendezvous,
you’ll learn and grow with your shipmates. You’ll even have the
opportunity to meet Sea Scouts from other parts of your community, the
nation, and even the world!
