Little Buc's Adventures

Meet Little Buc

Get to know Little Buc, the beloved mascot of the Follow The Voyage-Share The Experience Program. For seven weeks, this tiny green pirate will take you behind the scenes aboard the TS Kennedy and introduce you to spaces and places that even some cadets miss. Somehow, Little Buc always knows the latest shipboard information, and you can be sure that he’ll pass it along to you. You’ll even see Little Buc posing with cadets and crewmembers.

Little Buc joined the TS Kennedy in 2017 to engage our youngest followers. Within weeks, we discovered that middle school students, high school students, and even adult followers had become superfans of his posts. By the time the TS Kennedy returned to the dock in February, Little Buc had become a Sea Term celebrity. Students and parents waiting on the dock couldn’t wait to be photographed with him.

Don’t miss a single post! If you’re not already a Little Buc superfan, you will be soon!
