'And certainly as close as you ever want to get to one of these!! - Melbourne Two Handed (MTH)' John Curnow

If you've been to sea, then you've been blessed. In all my time on the water, I have been lucky enough to see dolphins, whales, sharks, all manner of table fish, penguins, turtles, sea snakes, things I'm not even sure how to describe and of course, seals.

Here's some pics from the 'Aw shucks!' moments during the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria's recent MTH (Melbourne Two Handed) on the very much becalmed Port Phillip. Don't let anyone tell you the Bay has suffered for the dredging.


About as close as you want to get to a ’Yankee Foxtrot’ - at least this one is stationary. - Melbourne Two Handed (MTH) - John Curnow
