Thank you, from all of us on Kaua'i.
Happy Sailing.
For 16 years the Kaua'i Sea Scouts have taught the youth of Kaua`i all about ships. Seamanship, Leadership. Friendship. Citizenship. As the only Sea Scouts in all of Hawai'i, the program has given boys and girls experiences and memories to carry through their lives. Several Scouts who have aged out of the program have gone on to maritime careers, but all Sea Scouts share the experience of actively loving the ocean.
The Kaua'i Sea Scouts are a scouting program that teaches young people ages 12 to 21 in SeamanSHIP, LeaderSHIP, CitizenSHIP, and FriendSHIP. We love to learn and
have fun doing it. For 16 years our program is built around adults teaching and
being a resource while the young crew actively runs the ship. From cooking, running
the helm, standing watch, pulling the anchor, navigating, tying lines, or doing
fenders, our ship is in good hands with our Sea Scout crew.
We just returned from a two week cruise, five island tour, with 20 scouts around the
Hawaiian Islands on our new boat, Sun Seeker. Unfortunately, Hurricane Lowell
struck our island on September 7, 2026 and we lost our beautiful 63 ft. yacht in the
harbor on Kaua'i. This was to be our boat to continue our scouting program well
into the future.
Our program funds itself through donations and car washes. However, a major fundraising campaign is needed to raise funds to obtain a new boat.
With the philosophy that Sea Scouts is for everyone, no youth have ever been turned away.
