From the Trainee Ewan Kepple 10/04/06

Today is the last day of the journey. I am glad that I have finished everything and stayed till the end. It connects me to my great great grandfather. He built a boat of his own. A pearling lugger. The name of the boat was Pearl Queen. He used to run it up and down the coast and Torres Strait diving for pearl with his sons on board as crew. That was my mothers grand father. George Bowen.

Now I've got this bloke in Cooktown offering me a job. Who knows where it will go from there. I'm having a think about the job because one of the other skippers from a trout boat offered me a job as well.
