The Troop has several different uniforms depending on the activity and time of year. Details of them, and where the badges go on the jumper, are below.

Full or Winter Uniform

• Navy blue jersey, with double neck and ribbing at the wrists and waist in the approved style with the words Sea Scouts embroidered in white on the chest;
• Square rig worn under the jersey;
• Group scarf tied in a discovery knot;
• Navy blue or black long trousers without turn-ups.
• Brown leather belt with buckle bearing the Scout Badge worn under the jersey. The Chief Scout's Challenge belt buckle may be worn if the Scout is so qualified;
• Clean black shoes;
• Sea Scout cap and tally band;
• Lanyard for PLs (worn only with Bosun's call);

Summer Uniform

During the summer months (1 May - 30 September) uniform will be a square rig instead of jumper. Smart trousers, shoes and a cap are still required as above.

Activity Rig

For certain less formal events or activities a group polo shirt may be worn, with a scart as directed.

Group Scarf

Every Scout Group has a different coloured scarf to identify them by. The 3rd Chalkwell Bay Scarf is half black, and half gold. The gold half originates from the 1st Chalkwell Bay's colour when we broke away in the 1930s.
