Do you want the adventure of a lifetime? Apply to sail aboard the tall ship US Coast Guard Cutter Eagle! The Eagle is a three-masted barque used to train Coast Guard cadets and officer candidates yearly during the spring and summer months. The Eagle was built in Germany in 1936 and was taken as a war reparation by the U.S. after World War II. Since then, the Eagle has been home ported in New London, Connecticut, the location of the U.S. Coast Guard Academy
This program is administered through the Coast Guard Auxiliary as part of their youth program. Based on available berthing space, billets are obtained from the Eagle leadership for select Sea Scouts to join as crew aboard the Eagle during the final portion of the summer cadet cruises. This opportunity is available to all Sea Scouts who desire fun, adventure, and a summer cruise to remember – you don’t want to miss this chance. Sailing on Eagle counts toward your Long Cruise award as well!
