SSS Gryphon

SSS Gryphon Our program teaches nautical skills, teamwork, and leadership. Our main vessel is ship T-439, a 65 foot Army transport vessel from the Korean War. What do we do?

Aboard the ship, you learn all about how to maintain and operate the vessel with your fellow ship mates. Cruise to the California delta, Compete with other ships and crews from around the nation. We learn how to navigate the waters of the San Francisco Bay and participate in events such as Fleet Week with the Blue Angels, and KFOG's KABOOM show with their fireworks display. Some of our summertime

activities include wake boarding and water skiing in California's beautiful delta, sailing an kayaking in the bay, and compete in regattas with fellow Sea Scout Ships.

Last month we helped swap out a race mark. It was hard work and what a mess! But it was nice to get out on the water and use the boat for something different.
