What a year for the Islander. Several of our Crew and Mates were directly impacted by the fires in January, yet we came through stronger than ever as we headed into our 95th year. We continued cherished traditions and started a new one with our first Fleet Cruise.
Our fleet of vessels gives the Crew the chance to develop real maritime skills and seamanship. Whether they pursue careers on the water or paths far from it, they leave with leadership abilities, confidence, and friendships that last a lifetime.
Will you help forward the mission of Islander (since 1930) and Black Pearl (since 2023) to develop the scouting principles of citizenship, leadership, and character in a nautical atmosphere?
