Based on the following, Victory and Hawke appear to be parts of the same troop. The boatshed was erected after Nov 1928. Prior to that, both parts met at separate facilities. Victory on at least one occasion used a boatshed at Herne Bay Beach (not Cox's Creek).

Hi @DMBanks1, from my research Victory and Hawke Sea Scouts were two different sea scout companies (later troops), as noted with the different contingents being represented at the meeting of Sea Scout Officers in December 1928: https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/SUNAK19281212.2.194.7?items_per_page=10&query=%22hawke+sea+scouts%22+victory&snippet=true&sort_by=byDA
I think there might have been an error made in 30 Nov 1928 as all other references to the boat shed at Coxs Bay are to Hawke Sea Scouts. It is possible that the two groups combined at a later date, given their closeness geographically, and that they are undertaking joint activities on Hawke Sea Scouts' land on Pine Island.
