matuawarrior Posted September 16, 2003 Share Posted September 16, 2003 Has anyone heard of a School Afloat cruise for seamanship skills? I'm looking for ideas to help plan a week long Sea Scout training on Seamanship skills while cruising. I have an old Sea Scouting Manual that we are using for now, until we get the new manual. I have ordered the updated manual from the BSA catalog. I am currently working with the DE here to make this an annual council/district event as an interest to the Venturers in our district and the neigboring outer islands. We hope to kick this event off during Easter Week or June of next year, during the dry season, to take advantage of the trade winds. Any suggestions will help.

LovetoCamp Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Matua, I'm sorry I missed your post or I would have answered earlier. Are you doing any VLSC or JLT activities? If so, the Coast Guard has a downloadable leadership manual that could be modified to use on your cruise. Pounder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsteele Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 I'm not sure what you're referring to, Matua. However, there is a syllabus for Sea Badge -- the Sea Scout version of Wood Badge. I don't even know if it has survived the changeover to Wood Badge for the 21st Century -- but will call the National Director of Venturing on your request to find out. Let me know.
