Piggy in the Middle
We sailed from our dolphin watching anchorage and proceeded into Gove at 1000 this morning. After lunch we bussed it into town in search of the pool and shops. We had a great time playing sport in and out of the pool. Piggy in the middle was never as much fun. Red Watch triumphed in the inter-watch sports competition by being very good at wheelbarrow races, hockey with a stump and football and beach volleyball.We returned ravenous and had a great dinner. In the evening a very dubious quiz night was held (I say that because my team came third). Still the fishermen are desperate to catch something ��� it must be the bait they are using. Also, 100-pound lines are a bit of a giveaway to a half pound mullet, but I’m sure they’ll get something ��� anything will do.Tomorrow we depart on a half day sail for some local communities and with the wind blowing as it is, it will definitely be good sailing.No YC entry today – they’re tuckered out.Stay tunedAndrew 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
