Seamanship Competition

The Troop has won this competition in 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 2000, 2001, 2002. For many years this has been held at Sandvlei but in 1995 the Sea Scouts went to Gordons Bay and 1996 to Simonstown where  it has been held since (except for 1999 when there was no competition). Mark Langley was the Patrol Leader in 1995 and Savvas Bizinos in 1996.
