Laguna Bay (Noosa)
Ahoy Shipmates, Morning brief this morning kicked of a busy day for the Crew of Young Endeavour. Following a quick set of cleaning stations a full press of fore and aft sails were set and it was straight into demonstrational tacks. Due to very light conditions this exercise took a little longer than usual but the objective of demonstrating a tack from the command team’s perspective was still achieved. Following these set of tacks I conducted ���Captains Setting and Furling Drills�� completing this exercise just in time to bring the Ship to anchor in Laguna Bay (Noosa Heads) at 1300. Once at anchor the Sailmaster conducted his interactive Communication Exercise and once this activity was completed the Boats Officer ferried a very enthusiastic Youth Crew ashore to be let loose on the famous Noosa Beach and the shops of Hastings Street. Once everyone was back onboard we enjoyed another memorable ���teak deck BBQ�� which was followed by the Command Day brief and elections in preparation for the much anticipated challenge of taking command of the Ship, which will occur at 1000 tomorrow morning.Until Tomorrow, take care.Yours AyeCaptain Gav

Thank you Tarvi, Kaeden and Matt for your narrative of today's events. Intentions are to remain at anchor in Hunters Bay, just off HMAS Penguin, home of the RAN Diving School, a place close to my heart, having spent many a day there under training as a young Officer! The plan is to weigh anchor and proceed to HMAS Waterhen, in Waverton, to pick up our Community Day Sailors from the Windgap Foundation and take them for a sail around the harbour for 3 hours. The Youth Crew will help us host our visitors and give them an experience of Young Endeavour. We will drop them back to Waverton and then proceed to anchor in the harbour where we will have a good view of the Bridge and the Opera House for the Youth Crew's last night onboard. Until tomorrow. Yours Aye, Captain Mike
