Free Open Day on STS Young Endeavour – Hobart Wooden Boat Festival – Sat 8, 10-3pm

Visit Australia’s national sail training ship STS Young Endeavour at the Hobart Wooden Boat Festival!

 

Explore the ship, meet the Royal Australian Navy staff crew, and hear from the Young Endeavour Ambassadors about their voyage experience. Since 1988 the ship has welcomed over 14,000 young Australians on board, and sailed more than 500,000 nautical miles.

 

A voyage in Young Endeavour is a challenging adventure at sea for youth aged 16-23 years. It’s a unique opportunity for youth to develop teamwork and leadership skills through an internationally recognised youth development program.

 

The event is free, open to all ages and great for the whole family. Visitors encouraged to wear enclosed, flat shoes and shorts/pants.

 

10-3pm
