Skipper's Log

Ahoy!  Welcome to the offical page of Sea Scout Ship 243.

Next meeting: 08/23/2023 at 19:00 at the Rahway Elks.  
What's been Happening:

The Horse has had her haul out and repairs and painting have been completed to the underside.We would like to thank our Crew and volunteers for their help with this task.

The barge was successfully moved up river. Thank you to Skipper jimmy , Vinik Marine and Bird Construction. As of now,  the barge is only accessible via small boat; so getting to and from the barge, and the Horse, will be challenging for the next several months.

Safety Moments:  Everyone should take some time and watch these videos provide by

We would like to take this time to thank Mike Vinik of Vinik Marine; for their continued support of Ship 243.  They have graciously donated fuel to the Sea Horse.  There is a great story online about Mr. Vinik, a great read about one of our biggest supporters.
