Mini tag

After much thought... I've decided on a smaller tag to save the environment and easier to affix with double sided tape, old retrieve line or cable tie.

Baggage tags

I've designed a series of baggage tags which I'll print and laminate. The tags can be hole punch then attached to our equipment or pasted on with double sided tape. Look cool right...

Crew Tag

Here's the draft crew tag specially for Endeavour crew only.

Post Training report

Its been almost a month since the last posting. Not many people has registered themselves with the Endeavour blog.

A quick recap for the training week.

1. Day 1 - Sailing with the bahia. Most commented a good session with a random crew. Some voice out not confident to sail with the bahia.
   
   
2. Day 2 - Rigging up the cutter. For most, the last cutter rigging was way back during the 21 days. A bit of confusion on the traveler's loop. It's been confirmed to be tied to the shackle with uphaul rope. At noon, we experience the difficulty of capsizing a cutter. At least, we know it doesn't cap so easily except for the problematic one that went "full turtle".
   
   
3. Day 3 - Quite a drama for endeavour... We went head on with a bum boat and the bowsprit got ripped off. Without the bowsprit, we had to down the jib and continue sailing. We did learn the importance of the jib during tacking and also impact of boat balance to assist turning. Ultimately we missed the chance to practise our anchoring and rowing plus a bit of tension in between.
   
   
4. Day 4 - blow up kayak. Roland and and Karma did a good job introducing the kayak parts. The assembly session was a mess. With our kayaks finally pieced together, we did some paddling, capsizing and clipping in to anchor.
   
   
5. Day 5 - Tuition day - Rowing, anchoring and storming. Bad weather took over thus we only paddled with the cutter still moored off.
