24.01.2022 Happy 23rd Birthday, Enterprize! We're sorry we couldn't go out for a proper birthday sail or have a real gathering under lockdown, but we look forward to going on adventures again soon! Hello to Melbourne and all friends of Enterprize from our crew, who got together today to wish the ship (23) and Melbourne (185) a very happy iso-birthday. #MelbourneDay #EnterprizeTallShip #isobirthday

23.01.2022 Donations to the Enterprize Trust are fully tax deductible! This tax time consider making a donation to help Enterprize through her 21 year refit. We want to renew the electrical and plumbing systems so we can get her back to doing longer distance voyages to Geelong, Mornington and further afield to King Island and back to the next Hobart Wooden Boat Festival in 2021. We are also looking for ongoing sponsors to help expand our sailing program include more voyages for disadvantaged youth and fund apprenticeships to help with sail making and traditional rigging skills. If you are interested in making a donation to a worthwhile cause or more information on becoming a sponsor please message us! Thank you for your support!

23.01.2022 Some great footage from Daniel Tan of Enterprize sailing off Williamstown a few weeks ago. It was a great day out on the water and we are looking forward to another one today!

23.01.2022 Good news! Our layup maintenance period is finally over and Enterprize is ready to sail from Gem Pier Williamstown. Still room on the 4 pm today and sailing again at 11, 12:30 (1 hr) and 2:30 (1.5 hr) tomorrow.

23.01.2022 They say a ship in harbour is safe. That’s not what Enterprize was built for, but right now it’s what she needs. As you’re probably already aware, while the world takes a break to deal with the latest global challenge, Enterprize is taking a little break too to help keep our staff, our volunteers and our visitors safe.... Thanks to everyone who has supported us in ways big and small over the last 12 months our volunteers, our donors, our schools and our intrepid weekend sailors and for those of you who were planning a visit to us in the near future, we’re sorry to have missed you. We’d love to see you on the other side of this instead! Our office is still operating as usual, albeit from home - just leave us a message by phone or by email if you need to get in touch. Our volunteers are still keeping busy behind the scenes preparing for the next sailing season, so we can return bigger and better than ever when the world re-opens for business. We’ll try and keep you updated as Enterprize undergoes the ultimate tall ship beauty spa treatment annual lay-up! Make sure you follow our Facebook page and keep an eye on our website for more information when we resume our normal sailing schedule. In the meantime, stay safe, look out for your crewmates, and we’ll see you again once we’ve weathered this storm. The ENTERPRIZE Team

22.01.2022 Happy International Talk Like A Pirate Day from our crew to yours. #talklikeapirate #ITLAPD2020

22.01.2022 Reunited! For the first time in over 12 months, both our ship's parrots have joined forces again on board Enterprize! Despite the stunning weather conditions here in Port Phillip Bay, they're still keeping a close eye on the helmsman just in case ;) #enterprize #tallship #melbournestallship #allwoodallgood #mrblueandmissscarlet

20.01.2022 An interesting short film about how cannon barrels are made. The barrel looks a lot like the little cannon we have onboard Enterprize for special occasions.

19.01.2022 Tonight you can catch one of our last outings before lockdown started. Filmed early in 2020, Enterprize welcomed aboard Myeloma Australia's ambassadors as they commenced The Great Ocean Road Adventure. Join the Myeloma Australia ambassadors online at tonight's world premiere screening of The Great Ocean Road Adventure, raising funds for Myeloma Australia. We look forward to seeing what adventures they had after returning to dry land! https://myeloma.org.au/fundraising/major-events/

12.01.2022 One of our very talented crew, Helen Ebsworthy, created this beauty. Made almost entirely of Enterprize bits and pieces, you can enjoy that real tarry ship smell while being covid-safe. :) She also makes amazing period costume!

10.01.2022 ENTERPRIZE - Melbourne's Tall Ship looking pretty back in January 2016. Thanks to Margaret Edmonds for the photo!

10.01.2022 Happy Day of the Seafarer! Like most tall ships we're all tied up at the moment but are looking forward to many happy days of sailing ahead. While our crew are volunteers, our thoughts are with professional seafarers around the world who are working through the pandemic to keep vital goods and supplies moving. You can find out more about this year's theme, #SeafarersAreKeyWorkers, at the International Maritime Organisation website: http://www.imo.org/en/About/Events/dayoftheseafarer

06.01.2022 Welcome, one and all, to the Williamstown Seaport Festival! What a stunning day to celebrate sailing in all its forms - and what better place to celebrate than out on the water! We're delighted to have our fellow tall ships Young Endeavour Youth Scheme and Tall Ship James Craig joining us in Williamstown in weekend - we couldn't resist doing a little sail-by earlier this morning! Join us for our usual sails from Gem Pier today and tomorrow to see Enterprize and her Sydney fri...ends in all their glory! #enterprize #tallshipEnterprize #allwoodallgood #jamescraig #youngendeavour #williamstownseaportfestival

02.01.2022 I spy with my little eye...a ship on the horizon This spectacular view is available today and tomorrow at the Wooden Boats Festival here in Geelong - or why not flip the script and see Geelong from the water with a sail on Enterprize? #enterprize #tallshipEnterprize #allwoodallgood #woodenboatsfestival

02.01.2022 A lovely photograph by Grant Maddock of Enterprize in Storm Bay on the way to the 2017 Hobart Wooden Boat Festival. We hope to be back again in 2021.

02.01.2022 Many thanks to Bruce Ooi for the below video. Bruce was crewing on a windy day in 2006 when Enterprize went out to welcome HMB Endeavour to Melbourne. What a great memory! Two more videos from the same day in the comments.
