Local Sea Scouts needs your help
 
A Central Florida Sea Scout group could use your help. They are looking for
someone to donate a 16-18 ft Center Console power boat so they can learn
Search and Rescue with. This boat will also be used to keep the local lakes
and rivers clean so others can enjoy them. The boat must not have any leaks,
and the engine runs. If it has any thing else with it, ie. Trailer,
Fishfinder, GPS, VHF Radio, it will be a bonus. So if you would like to
donate your boat or know someone who would, please reply to this message. By
donating your boat to this group, you can get a tax break.

Sea Scouts is a high adventure co-ed group for ages 14-21. Sea Scouts is the
best kept secret in Boy Scouts. Some of the things that Sea Scouts teaches
are, Sailing, Motor boating, Rules of the Road, Day/Night Time Navigation,
Bouys, Markers, Swimming, The Sextant, Morse Code, Flag Semaphore,
Electronics, Radio Communication, and the list goes on. Some of the other
things that they do is, Snorkling, Scuba Diving, White Water Rafting,
Skiing, and Search and Rescues. They also work hand in hand with the Navy,
U.S. Coast Guard, and the U.S. Power Squadron. Another words, If it has to
do with water, the Sea Scouts do it.
Thank You,
Ship Skipper

I'll be darn dang nabbed. I was a Sea Scout WAY back long time ago -
I didn't know they were still part of the Boy Scouts.

Good luck and if you guys are ever looking for donations, give a
holler.

Later,

Tom

Hey Tom, we got a great bunch of seascouts down here in Essex, they
operate out of the River Mueseum at the landing. If you ever want to
head down stream and check em' out, give a hollar, I will set you up
with them.

I was with the Scout troop in Marblehead, MA which was run by the
town's Building Inspector Chumy Frost (his actual name). We had a
restored whale boat - a real one with sails and oars - 20 footer as I
remember. We also had four Swampscott dory's which were built and
donated to the troop by THE John Cunningham.

It was great fun.

Tom

Gee...all the cheap skates aren't on hockey players!


Why yes - that is certainly true.

You would guess correctly. :)

Although I am perfectly willing to send a donation if such is
necessary.

I had a lot of fun in the Sea Scouts.
