Well presented site, lads. We hope to go for Naval recognition in the next year. There are only 3 recognised Groups in Scotland and only 6 or so Sea Scout Groups! Muirtown Scouts are based at Seaport Marina, Caledonian Canal in an ex-naval building.

HELLO FROM THE USA! I life in Wisconsin, WNW of Chicago about 150 miles in the city of Madison. Despite the fact I am 1,500 from the Ocean I found the information on Pullies very helpful. I got my Tractor stuck. It slid off a road and into a ravine due to wet clay soil. The "Three Fold Purchase Pully" looks like the right thing for my problem. THANK YOU for letting me know it existed! The problem I have now is finding out where to buy one. Can you help ("throw me a line") on where to buy one? It is not clear to me where you are located. A map showing your location, and photo of your group would be great. It is always good seeing a few friendly faces! In the USA there is a Simpson Capstan Winch that is driven by a Chain Saw. One takes off the saw blade. And then puts the sa

Good to see you are still going strong. I was AVSL & VSL in 1974-78 ish. We had a boating base at the Strand, also use of the Strand pool and close relationships with the Medway Cruising Club. I used to work for Marconi at the Rochester airfield site, escaped to Ferranti but we are now both BAE SYSTEMS these days. In my spare time now, I (co-)run the Longcraig Scout Water Activities Centre under the Forth Rail Bridge, Edinburgh, (see www.longcraig.org.uk) as well as being an ADC-VS in my local Distrit. If Hydra Unit members want a camp in the "far North", do get in contact.
