AT ANCHOR AT BERMAGUI

Hi Everyone,Sunrise this morning found Young Endeavour 20nm to the south east of Bermagui motor sailing due to very light winds. By morning brief the wind had freshened to 15kts from the north east, so given these perfect conditions we set a full press of fore and aft sails and went straight into a very smooth set of rotational tacks. On completion of this activity we were only 4nm from our planned anchorage at Bermagui so all sail was handed in and we proceeded to anchor just of the entry to the Bermagui Boat Harbour at 1100. Following a quick ‘hygiene clean’ and lunch the Youth Crew were ferried ashore were they completed mid voyage talks then enjoyed some free time to explore the quaint township of Bermagui. This evening with everyone safely back onboard we enjoyed a ‘teak deck pizza’ night followed by the Young Endeavour Outdoor Cinema screening of the classic movie ‘Around Cape Horn’. Due to favourable wind conditions this evening I have decided to sail rather than remain at anchor at Bermagui overnight. By utilising these conditions we are assured of making Jervis Bay by midday tomorrow.Please find below some Captains Log entries from the Youth Crew.Until Tomorrow, Take Care.Yours AyeCaptain GavCAPTAINS LOG VOYAGE 19-09Saturday 5 Dec 09Hey everyone,The trip is going fantastic so far� despite the hallway incident on the second night (thanks Brad).
