Introduction

Over the years, we have featured a number of photographs of the Second Whitstable Sea Scouts... AND we have received requests to find a permanent home for the pictures.

Well, here it is and you can add your own photos and memories by emailing us at....  

whit@oysta.fsnet.co.uk 

We would like to extend special thanks to Jock Harnett for getting us started with a range of early photos. As many will know, Jock has been involved with the Sea Scout band for many years and his dad, Shirley Harnett, was a stalwart of the unit for more than half a century.
