And for the more adventurous, Endeavour is again looking for paying voyage crew to hoist the sails and work the lines on its 5-day offshore voyages.
You don't have to be an expert to join the crew. This is your opportunity to live and work like an 18th century sailor and experience blue water sailing at its best. The 44-metre ship sails with 16 professional crew members and a further 36 voyage crew members who are taught 18th century sailing techniques and expected to become competent members of the ship's company.
Their daily program includes climbing aloft, setting sails, ship cleaning, sail and rope work...and they sleep in hammocks - just as Cook and his men did 240 years ago.

Heading out the heads, Endeavour will retrace Cook's progress up the stunning shores of the coast he named New South Wales. With five days voyaging there'll be opportunities to see amazing marine life and experience the wonder of a 360° horizon.
25 April - 29 April 2010
Sydney, Botany Bay
Join in on this special voyage to commemorate the 240th anniversary of James Cook making landfall in Botany Bay. The ship will arrive in Botany Bay on the same date as the original Endeavour did more than two centuries ago. Voyage crew will also be able to attend the Meeting of Two Cultures Ceremony marking the anniversary at the original landing site.
