And I should reiterate that kick-offtime to DEPART 'Jackson's on George', as Pussasan noted, is promptly at 1100, so if you're after breakfast,  or a heart-starter,  target your arrival at 'Jackson's on George' at 1000...  Anybody heard from Dino, Steve, Howie, Anthea, Mark or Brian regarding the Basin Trials and/ or the BBQ/ Cruise..? 
For me Saturday only.

I don't know if the significance of Jackson on George is that well known. The Port of Sydney Shipwrights "roster rooms" used to be in the Ironworker building next to Jackson on George. Don't know if it still there (probably not) but there was a plaque entitled Shipwrights Corner on the right as you went into the bar. Mind you my last time there was way back in the mid 70's....................................

You are probably correct on the time - definitely the action to drink after signing on. The Ship Inn was the early opener at the Quay for those waiting to catch the ferry to the end of Garden Island. A couple of the old fart tradesmen I worked with (as an apprentice) used to have a schooner and a rum before catching the ferry - some had more............

Looks like it will be a short watch below for Basin Trials.
Hope those malingerers get some form of punishment.
