It runs weekly scouting for children and young people aged about 7 to 25 in age-based groups, with a focus on sea scouting, navigation and sailing skills. The group operates the training sailing vessel s/y Pranstaka, a camp area in Nauvo, and a RS Vision dinghy activity at Heinänokka harbour. It also runs a family scouting group, a group for scouts with disabilities or long-term illnesses (Sisupartio), and a support association, Nuotiotyttöjen Tuki ry. The organisation is non-profit, politically non-partisan and open to all. Funding comes from membership fees, donations, church parish support, event income and merchandise sales. Its current priority is raising funds for a new training vessel, Pranstaka IV, by 2030.
