Biding Time, Waiting for Pizza
Current situation at 1800: This morning we awoke to a beautiful day and after a big night of climbing and not much sleep we soon cleared the cobwebs with a greatbrekkie and a fun morning brief. Today the YC went through learning more of the parts of the ship, particularly the lines and sails andafter a swim and lunch we weighed anchor and headed further out to sea.This afternoon the YC set all sails but there was one big problem. No wind. Zilch. Nothing. Zip. We are waiting for a southerly to fill our sails but in the meantime we are enjoying the ambience…and the sunset…and the company…and the loads of dolphins.Everyone is well and there’s no fish feeding. Everyone is waiting for pizzas though.Stay tuned, Andrew Davis

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
