Sounds good DJ, get to see what all the fuss is about with my new/2 nd hand 14 ft DC " munji" I bought of DC when he was down in Melb recently..... The D/W is a fine way to start the festive season....

Will see how the old bones and gristle pull up after this morning's 20k run.

What is it then a Harbour?

No, it's local semantics

Hi Phil.. Yeay it's the Port Phillip Bay where we do our downwinders and we would love to have you join us if you ever make it down this way.

Here's some info about our Bay.


Port Phillip (also commonly referred to as Port Phillip Bay or (locally) just The Bay), is a large bay in southern Victoria, Australia; it is the location of Melbourne. Geographically, the bay covers 1,930 square kilometres (480,000 acres) and the shore stretches roughly 264 km (164 mi). Although it is extremely shallow for its size, most of the bay is navigable. The deepest portion is only 24 metres (79 ft), and half the region is shallower than 8 m (26 ft). The volume of the water in the bay is around 25 cubic kilometres (6.0 cu mi).
