Sea scout Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
Sea scouts are members of the international
scouting movement, with a particular emphasis on
sea-based activities. Sea Scouting had its beginning at a camp fire in England when Robert Baden-Powell voiced the hope that older Scouts would be interested in learning about boat management and seamanship. He stressed the need for young men to prepare themselves for service on their country's ships. Sea scouting was introduced by
Robert Baden-Powell with the assistance of his brother,
Warington Baden-Powell, K.C., an Admiralty lawyer, sailor, and inventor of
canoe sailing. Warington Baden-Powell wrote the handbook
Sea Scouting and Seamanship for Boys in
1910 with a foreword by Robert Baden-Powell. It was enthusiastically received by the young men of Britain and soon found its way to the United States. Warington Baden-Powell is also the author of
Canoe Travelling: Log of a Cruise on the Baltic, and Practical Hints on Building and Fitting Canoes London, Smith, Elder,
1871.
