My Little Kamikazes
Our night at anchor was perfect. The sunset was awesome and the concert was well prepared and hilarious.At 0630 hours this morning to the accompaniment of some great music everyone was up for the great tradition of ‘rust scrub’ ��� a great way to finish the voyage and get those nails clean.We sailed into port followed by the SA Tall Ship ‘One and All’ and berthed at Port Adelaide to be met by friends and family watching as the YC manned the yards and sang the National Anthem. It was ALL RIGHT, my little Kamikazes. Well done, guys.At a ceremony at midships I presented Voyage certificates and the Order of Australian Emblem to Tim Martin from Warwick, WA, for his contribution to the success of the Voyage. I then presented the Waterford Crystal Globe to mark our visit to Adelaide during our Circumnavigation to Councillor Bruno Ventura of the City of Adelaide.After the obligatory photo shoot the Staffies were sad to farewell the YC shortly afterwards. And so finishes another Voyage.Stay tuned and see you next time.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
