*''When I ran the Excal in San Pedro, from April 73 on, we would routinely take a boatload of staff, SO prospects and Scientologists from LA out on an evening cruise around LA Harbor, past the Queen Mary (if I recall correctly) which was a dockside restaurant, and then back to dock. Sometimes we'd have a music group perform on the fantail. It was a sort of floating party for a couple of hours, with the purpose of promoting SO recruitment. Before me, I believe Alan Long and Bob Young did similar excursions. We had been constrained not to leave San Pedro/Long Beach harbor by the Coast Guard, who thought we were under spec for carrying all those passengers safely. But it is a big harbor so we tootled around in it giving people a taste of the floating life.'' | *''When I ran the Excal in San Pedro, from April 73 on, we would routinely take a boatload of staff, SO prospects and Scientologists from LA out on an evening cruise around LA Harbor, past the Queen Mary (if I recall correctly) which was a dockside restaurant, and then back to dock.

We had been constrained not to leave San Pedro/Long Beach harbor by the Coast Guard, who thought we were under spec for carrying all those passengers safely. But it is a big harbor so we tootled around in it giving people a taste of the floating life.
Scott Mayer. Scott Mayer was born July 25, 1943, in Chicago, Illinois. He served in the U.S Navy during the Vietnam war. In the late 60's he joined Scientology and rose to the brevet rank of Captain in the Sea OrgAbbreviation for Sea Organization. (Modern Management Technology Defined (C) 1976)..

He left Scientology in 1976 and passed away October 6, 2005.
Quotes from Captain Mayer;
- When I was a Scientology fleet captain in 1973 and 1974, we had only two ships and another small boat in the U.S. Pacific Flotilla, but we were getting ready to have additional ships in Mexico and San Francisco and part of my assignment was to put a fleet together and to coordinate activities in training programs, staff analysis and establishment of the flotilla[1].
- I just put together a credit collection team and then started hitting the movie studios and others connected with the record companies to rent out use of the U.S. ships. At this time I was captain of the Excalibur which was an old navy ship. I had it rented out to a few movie studios and had money coming in. Indeed, we were making so much money that Scientology could not prove the ship was not financially viable because we were getting all this collection money[1].
- Compared to my Flagship, the Excalibur, it was a veritable garbage scow when I arrived at Flag to assist then Director of Maritime Operations, Commander Robert F. Young, in getting the Apollo cleaned up, ship-shape (and unknown to me, ready for sale on arrival in the U.S.)[2].
