Mission Actions:

A pleasant sailing day with calm water although the water level in the lake is still extremely low, Rob Ritchie knows how low the water is, he attempted to launch Roosevelt and sunk up to his knees in mud so definitely not a big ship water level at the moment. Bob Stevenson from Fleet Base Canberra and Mick Elst from Fleet Base Wagga Wagga also joined us for a sail.
