The Tribal Warrior Association uses the gaff-rigged ketch Tribal Warrior and the Deerubbun to train Aboriginal people to attain their Master Class V commercial maritime certificate and other qualifications including Radar certificate, and Marine Engineer certificate.
On all public occasions and celebrations, the Tribal Warrior flies the Koori Flag and the jib sail painted with the words "It's a Koori harbour" and the Black Duck totem. Wherever the boat goes or where Aboriginal people have seen it, it has been intimately their boat. This has been the spirit and goal from the beginning. |
