EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a Sea Scout patrol leader confidently navigates the stern of a traditional gig, a long, narrow rowing boat, as his energetic patrol of young scouts eagerly scull in unison behind him. The scene is set in the 1920s, an era of adventure and exploration, as evidenced by the period clothing and the pristine, wooden boat. The Sea Scout leader, dressed in his uniform complete with a cap emblazoned with the Sea Scout emblem, expertly guides the boat through the water, his focused gaze fixed on the horizon. The pole in his hand, adorned with a red pennant, serves as both a rudder and a symbol of his authority and expertise. The boys in the boat, all wearing their Sea Scout uniforms, mirror their leader's determination and enthusiasm, their faces filled with excitement as they scull in perfect synchronization. The tranquil water reflects the clear blue sky above, and the sun casts a warm glow over the scene. The boys' laughter and the gentle slap of the oars against the water create a sense of camaraderie and joy. This photograph captures the essence of Sea Scouting in the 1920s - a time of adventure, skill-building, and character development on the water. Whether it was learning to navigate by the stars, mastering the art of sculling, or simply enjoying the thrill of being on the water with their friends, these Sea Scouts were making memories that would last a lifetime.
