Looking for an adventure? A replica of the legendary 18th Century ship commanded by Lt. James Cook is scheduled to arrive in Bermuda on October 30.

And anyone with a little spirit of adventure and the desire to experience life on the open seas is invited to climb aboard for a voyage into the past.

The original HM Endeavour sailed into history more than 200 years ago when Lt.

Cook and his crew charted vast zones throughout the Pacific Ocean previously unknown to Europeans.

But since 1994 the modern day Endeavour has been sailing the high seas as a floating time machine. Besides a professional crew of mariners, the voyages are open to anyone interested enough to take to the sea -- no experience required.

The ship -- which was constructed as near to the original as possible, but according to modern day safety standards -- has already visited numerous countries around the world.

Living conditions are also faithful to the original. Crew sleep in communal quarters and sling their hammocks from the ceiling each night.

Working passengers on board the ship perform daily tasks of cleaning, standing watch, and sailing the ship.

Endeavour 's trip to Bermuda forms the opening leg of her Panama and Galapagos voyage and will begin on October 22 after a two-day training period in Halifax.

Once in Bermuda, the ship -- to berth at Number Five Dock from October 31 to November 2 -- will be open to the public as a museum before it sails south to Tortola Island, Barbados, Panama, Balboa, the Galapagos Islands, Acapulco, Cabo San Lucas and eventually San Diego in February.

Aspiring mariners can travel from Halifax to Bermuda from October 20 to 30, or from Bermuda to Tortola from November 3 to November 12. The voyages cost $990 and $1,215, respectively.
