⚓ Sea Scouts Ship 26 Meeting

Yesterday, Ship 26 had a productive meeting planning upcoming activities and events! They discussed the Commodore’s Breakfast, a sailing day with Troop 285, our upcoming LCYC workday, flag ceremonies, Friendsgiving, and plans for 2027.

It was great seeing our youth take the lead in organizing events, assigning responsibilities, and making decisions for the Ship.

⛵ Troop 66 Sailing Day with Sea Scout Ship 26!

What a great day on the water!

Due to logistical challenges, we moved Sailing Day from LCYC to Boerne City Lake with the support of our adult mentors.

Troop 66 Scouts enjoyed hands on sailing, continued working toward the Small Boat Sailing Merit Badge, and practiced rigging, launching, sailing, and safely operating small sailboats. They also learned about boat parts and proper takedown procedures.

Thank you to our Sea Scouts Trevor, Rowan, and Jedrek for teaching and working directly with the Scouts. We also appreciate Mr. Bowington and Commodore Sawyer for their guidance and help with the last minute location change.

The day strengthened the Scouts’ confidence, teamwork, leadership, and practical sailing skills while giving them an engaging experience on the water.

Thank you to everyone from Sea Scout Ship 26 and Troop 66 who made the event a success.

Ship 26 had a great opportunity to work with Troop 66 as they began their Small Boat Sailing Merit Badge!

Jedrek, Eirik, and Mr. Bowington attended the troop meeting to introduce the Scouts to some of the fundamentals of sailing. Eirik taught the parts of a sailboat, while Jedrek covered sailing knots and basic marlinespike seamanship. Mr. Bowington helped oversee the training and supported the Scouts throughout the evening.

The youth were very engaged, asked great questions, and were especially excited to start learning skills they will soon be able to use on the water.

This training is just the beginning! On September 20, Ship 26 has prepared a Sailing Day at Canyon Lake where the Scouts will have the opportunity to put these skills into practice, learn more about sailing, and experience being on the water firsthand.

We are excited to continue working with Troop 66 and helping introduce more youth to sailing, seamanship, leadership, and the opportunities available through Sea Scouts.

If you or someone you know is interested in sailing, learning new maritime skills, leadership opportunities, and adventures on the water, we would love to tell you more about Sea Scout Ship 26!

Great job to everyone who helped make the training a success. We’re looking forward to seeing Troop 66 out on the water for Sailing Day! ⛵⚓

Interesting history behind the founding of thr Smithsonian museums. Question is, is the story true? Google says it is true.

James Smithson was born the illegitimate son of the Duke of Northum...

Eliza helped with Pack 51’s Raingutter Regatta this evening. It’s great seeing units across programs collaborate and help one another. It gives the younger scouts an amazing example! Thanks Eliza!

Ship 26 Service Day ⚓️

Our Ship 26 youth spent part of their month giving back through a service project at LCYC! ⚓️💪

Thank you to Jedrek, Eliza, and Commodore Sawyer for putting in the time and helping make a difference. Service projects like this are a great opportunity for our Sea Scouts to build teamwork, leadership, responsibility, and skills while giving back to the organizations that support our Ship.

We’re proud of our youth for stepping up and serving their community!

We’re so glad you had this amazing experience!

Paolo, Trevor, Jedrek, Eliza, and Eirik, all officers in both the Crew and Ship26Alamo, made it home today from staffing 2026 National Jamboree.

These youth had a great time, learned a lot, and served their fellow scouts to help make Jambo an amazing experience for everyone.

We’re all so proud of you!
