We walk along the wharf, where we tied up, and found plenty to see. Firstly, we came across the crew of ‘Putty’s Pride’ hand-making their crayfish pots on the wharf. A lucky look into the water, at just the right time, revealed an eagle-ray swimming by. Another ‘local’ which hangs out at the boat ramp, is a fur seal. A Nankeen Night Heron turned up early for his night time hunting and posed for me on the wharf!

… it was time to explore this beautiful town; best described as quaint. Port Fairy is so neat and tidy; no litter, no long untidy grass, no rundown houses. On the contrary the people here appear to be very house proud. The town is full of old building and cottages that all appear to be freshly painted! All the white paint at the wharf area appears to be freshly painted….. there is no bird poo on anything… yes there are lots of birds around, but where they defecated before Thorfinn arrive I do not know…

Sailing from Cape Jaffa to Portland we experienced large swell, early fog, sunny days and little wind. Fishing – we caught a tuna while trolling. Nothing beats fresh tuna! Great cruise.
