2019 Special Events
Nuclear Submarine Tour San Diego Youth Event
Sea Scout Maritime Explorer Club 8051 NYC, Sea Scout Ship 40 Henderson and Sea Scout Ship 450 Lake Havasu received a tour of the nuclear submarine SSN 757 Alexandria. The Alexandria is a Los Angeles class attack submarine. We used a 15 passenger Scouting van to make the trip to San Diego's Point Loma submarine base. We camped on Mission Bay. It was tight but right next to the bay. Sorry we have no photos of the silent service machine. Many thanks to the United States Navy and Bill Lynn of Sea Scouts for this unique opportunity.
Land Sailing with the North American Nationals
Blokart was nice enough to let us sail their land sailers.
