On Friday 30th August 2024, whilst Leeuwin was berthed alongside Fremantle Harbour, she was hit by a large cargo vessel. The damage was significant and has resulted in the temporary cessation of our Adventure Based Training program. Leeuwin was built with one purpose in mind - to change lives. For more than 35 years, this beloved tall ship has sailed voyages that remain touchstones in the lives of all who went aboard. Now she needs our help to return to her mission of helping the youth of Western Australia.

My dad worked on the Leeuwin for many years and I have very fond memories of sailing on her. I hope she can be back up and running as soon possible.
