Josh got to spend a day working on
Enterprize, a two masted topsail schooner, replica of the
one that brought settlers to Melbourne in 1835. He had a seat on the end of the bowsprit, went up the ratlines (barefoot), furled the sails, got a bit sunburnt, and had a good time. It did not, unfortunately, have a gun larger than a signal gun. Anyone who has a 68-pounder carronade available, please let us know...
