The Sea Power Ambassador Mission

The mission of the Sea Power Ambassador program is to educate the American public and elected officials on the need to rebuild the fleet of the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard to meet America's security requirements in the 21st Century.

Your Support Is Our Future

Rebuilding America's Navy and other sea services will only be achieved through an active, organized, grassroots education campaign led by Sea Power Ambassadors from the ranks of the shipbuilding industry, labor unions, and other stakeholders and concerned citizens. The President, presidential candidates, U.S. Senators, and U.S. Representatives need to hear from multiple constituents through multiple means of communication that rebuilding America's Sea Power should be a national priority.

Fleet Size Crisis

America faces a security crisis. The fleet of the U.S. Navy has dropped from 594 ships in 1987 to around 280 ships today. This represents the smallest Navy in our Nation's history since 1917. For 12 years, the Nation has been ordering just six new ships a year, on average. This is the lowest rate of naval ship production since 1932, and if continued, our Navy will shrink to a fleet of 180 ships. While the Navy's fleet is on a dive course, the need for a larger and more capable fleet is more imperative now than at any other time in our history.

"As America faces threats that require our naval mobility, we must ensure our country remains the world's largest, most formidable maritime power. To this end, I support the efforts of the Sea Power Ambassadors to raise awareness that America must invest in shipbuilding if we are to maintain our maritime capability and our national security."
