Day 4 Preparations for Departure

As night approaches the Endeavour and crew sit calmly at the Port Macquarie Wharf awaiting the adventures of the following day.
With a strong wind blowing the conditions were less than favourable for this drill.At sea conditions can get a lot worse.
High above Port Macquarie with gloomy skies and nightfall approaching sails are secured and checked for the following days departure.
Learning the ropes and how to sail a tall ship must be a wonderfull experience for a young crew.
Onlookers watch in amazement as the crew works on the rigging high above the decks.
Approaching nightfall additional new members to the crew undergo training and preparations for departure the following day.
