At long last I got in to see the Endeavour replica at Fremantle, and she looks wonderful.
They are still short of $2 million. At Christmas they hoped it would be launched in May this year, but in January this was revised to some time in July.
I picked up a catalogue of mementos for sale, such as sweatshirts, T-shirts, baseball caps, belaying pins, mugs, bookmarks, pens and teaspoons. There is even a video. For your own copy write to:
