Welcome to Sea Scouts and Ship 650 Genesis... The Sea Scout Ship Genesis extends an invitation to young adults 14 - 21 years old and their families to drop in and see what Sea Scouting is all about. Service Since 1912... Sea Scouting was founded in the United States in 1912. In the 90 + years since Sea Scouts have charted a course of leadership and adventure. Come explore our history with us.
Sea Scouting is a coed outdoor program for young adults 14 - 21 years old and their adult advisors. Sea Scouts learn about sailing and boating. In addition, responsible adult advisors demonstrate and teach many boating-related skills, such as sailmaking, navigation, engine maintenance and sailing. Sea Scouting exposes you to the traditions of the sea, as well as the many opportunities present in maritime industry. You'll get a first-hand opportunity to learn about careers in the Navy, Coast Guard and Merchant Marine. You'll enjoy day and overnight cruises on the Columbia and Willamette rivers, trips to mountain lakes, the Oregon coast and Puget Sound. These activities take place year-round. At times, Sea Scouting is as simple and easy as cruising down a quiet river. At other times it can be complex and difficult as you navigate your way through unfamiliar waters during a storm or fog. Sea Scouting offers the challenge and excitement of the sea --- sailing, navigation, communications, mechanics, weather and much more. You'll go places and do things that you might not otherwise experience. If you are looking toward the sea for a career or a life-long hobby, Sea Scouting is for you! Don't miss out on this opportunity! |
