What is Sea Scouting?
Sea Scouts is a youth maritime training program and is part of the Scouts America. The crew on the SSS Propeller typically ranges from 12 – 20 Scouts, male and female, ages 14 to 21.
We operate aboard our training vessel, YTB Propeller, year-round. We hold weekly meetings and host several weekend events each month. Our crew trains to run all aspects of the ship, including engineering, deck work, navigation and helm, and even working in the galley. During weekend cruises, we live on board the boat and visit places around Puget Sound. In the summer, we take an extended cruise to the San Juan Islands and beyond.

Our Alumni includes two captains for Holland America Lines, a USN Submarine Captain, Coast Guard commissioned and petty officers, Army pilots and mechanics, Chief Engineers aboard commercial freighters, business owners, electrical engineers, many deckhands and AB mariners, crew members aboard Washington State Ferries, and the list goes on and on. Many alumni return to the program and volunteer, often expressing a desire to give back to the program that gave them so much
