Welcome aboard the Sea Scout Ship Gryphon!

Ship 33, Redwood City, California

             The Gryphon Crew is a part of Sea Scouts of America, a program for young adults. Our program teaches nautical skills, teamwork, and leadership. Our main vessel is ship T-439, a 65 foot Army transport vessel from the Korean War. Aboard the ship, you learn all about how to maintain and operate the vessel with your fellow ship mates. We own many other vessels for training: these include sailboats, whale boats, canoes, kayaks, and even a new ski-boat!

What do we do?
 

Cruise to the California delta, Compete with other ships and crews from around the nation.  We learn how to navigate the waters of the San Francisco Bay and participate in events such as Fleet Week with the Blue Angels, and KFOG's KABOOM show with their fireworks display.  Some of our summertime activities include wake boarding and water skiing in California's

                                              beautiful delta, sailing an kayaking in the bay, and

                                              compete in regattas with fellow Sea Scout Ships.
