I came across this article and thought it worth a share.
In 1831, a 22 year old impressionable Charles Darwin boarded HMS BEAGLE to set sail on perhaps the most important event of his life. Many of us know the story that is now very firmly in our history books "On the Origin of Species".
This morning (Monday 14 August) the sailing vessel Oosterschelde, a restored Dutch tall ship, set sail with the intention of retracing the journey undertaken by Charles Darwin. If you feel it has elements you would like to take part in and you fulfil the pre requisites, they are still looking for crew!! Follow these links to see the article.
