Storm Sails Set
Situation at 20:00-As we made ground to the South last night, the watches were able to gain practise in setting and furling the various sails. Themajority of the Youth Crew have proven themselves capable of accurately steering YOUNG ENDEAVOUR and overall they have settledinto the routine of life at sea.At today’s morning brief Salty Sea Dog Loz enlightened us on the nautical origin of the term Hijack”. Engineer Stewy showed hisconsiderate nature and only made a modest haul for the “”scran bag””. But all hands are on notice that tomorrow he will be considerately tougher. Happy hour proved to be a lively evolution. No sooner wouldthe smell of the cleaning products (made in Oz) be noticed then a made rush to the upperdeck would ensue. Very curious!The remainder of the forenoon was taken up with the first installment of rope races and Navigator Spanky giving a lecture on the black art that is his profession. Just as forecast

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
