The
Royal Ark Mariner Degree is attached to the Mark Degree and is open to
all Mark Master Masons.
This beautiful and interesting Degree has no historical connection to
the Mark Degree although it is governed by Mark Grand Lodge, and as its
name suggests it has a nautical
flavour, taking for its scenario the circumstances leading up to
the Great Flood as recorded in the book of Genesis and the steps taken
by Noah to build the Ark, by which mankind was preserved from perishing
in the "Universal Deluge”.
The
senior officers of a Royal Ark Mariner Lodge represent Noah and his two
sons, Japheth and Shem.
Like the Mark Master Masons Degree, there is only one ceremony of
Elevation.
The Royal Ark Mariner Degree has some really beautiful portions of
ritual, which are guaranteed to make a lasting impression on every
candidate.
