Order your copy on-line now

The book is written by Vic Rolfe who has been involved in Scouting all his life. The book is the result of several years writing on the history of Sea Scouts in Reading.

1st Reading (YMCA) and 2nd Reading (Warren) Caversham were both registered in May 1909. The history is well recorded through to the fire that destroyed the 1st Reading boathouse earlier this year.

The book tells stories beyond that of Sea Scouts. The Devizes to Westminster Race is recorded along with 'Operation Sealion'. There are many familiar names and stories in the book!
