A Note From a Boy Scout working on his Motorboating Merit Badge

Published on 4/5/2024
We received a lovely note from a future Cruiser, Elliot. Who used the SSCA website as a resource to obtain his Boy Scout's Motorboating Merit Badge, and he had some advice for us as well...

"I hope your day is going well! I'm a Community Center volunteer who just wanted to send a quick thank you note because you've been such an enormous help with a young gentlemen I'm currently assisting. His name is Elliot and he's working towards earning his Motorboating Merit Badge for Boy Scouts. We discovered your page, https://www.ssca.org/content.aspx?page_id=22&club_id=710182&module_id=283988 while using the the center's computer for research, and found it to be a great reference to meet his badge's requirements from! Thank you so much! :D

Elliot also wanted to help you out in some manner, so he had the lovely idea of sharing another resource he came across. It's https://www.siyachts.com/resource-guide-to-boating-and-yacht-safety and it's a boating safety resource guide. He learned a ton from it, so he hoped it could do the same for others using your page.
"

We were delighted to hear that Elliot found our organization to be a great resource to help with his badge requirements, and that he was willing to share some of the knowledge he gained from other sites to support our members! We have added the resource Elliot found to our Resource Links page under Health, Safety, & Security.

Thank you Annie for reaching out. And best of luck to you, Elliot, in earning your badge! Please feel free to reach back out with any of your future boating and cruising needs. We would love to have you as a future member of SSCA!
