If you are 13-21 and interested in being a Sea Scout and getting involved with learning more about sailing, the water and boats and want to have fun while meeting new people, come check us out and contact us! Become a Sea Scout! We are also recruiting adult leaders. We need help with program planning, teaching lessons, chaperones, committee members, and much more! We currently meet on Thursday nig

hts from 5-7pm at the Pacific Fisherman Shipyard in Ballard on board the new Yankee Clipper. We also hold weekend cruises throughout the year! Contact for directions and for information on upcoming events and meetings. The Seattle-based Sea Scout Ship Yankee Clipper creates opportunities for young people to learn and demonstrate leadership, teamwork, self-reliance, self-confidence and a strong work ethic in an environment based on ancient tradition and 21st-century innovation. Join our group of active young people as we sail from Olympia in southern Puget Sound to the San Juan Islands into the waters of British Columbia. We participate in national and international tall ship events, sail on week-long summer and winter voyages, make public appearances at water festivals, and have lots of fun along the way. In 2022, we purchased a new boat to serve as a worthy replacement for the venerable old Yankee Clipper. Our new boat is a Navy 44 Mk1 Sail Training Craft (formerly named “Swift”) that was used at the Naval Academy to train midshipmen how to sail. The new Yankee Clipper is a Coast Guard inspected small passenger vessel, certified for 12 passengers. We are grateful for the long standing sponsorship of Lions Club of West Seattle!
