Far in the distance, squint and look just below the seagull and you can see the Resilient Lady. 
Missed her turning at South Channel by 15 minutes.
Checking out the moon, towards Mt Martha at dusk - love our "office".

Is this looking across The Rip? Are you on the Queenscliff side?

We are on "the other side" @prozac - (Mornington Peninsula)
The Lady was nearing the Heads - must be a bit more organised for her next visit coming up the bay to Melbourne!
Think there could be an AFF 'er on board this trip

Look forward to your TR
When family/friends were on the Spirit of Tassie (in the days of Station Pier as the departure port) we would go to Penny Lane McCrae where the ships turn at the South Channel and flash our headlights at them - and they would be on their phone saying "we can see, we can see"!

That show on screen is absolutely horrendous, hope it's cancelled now that the first season is finished.

No, it's great! You just have to understand the context - the script writers have created something to appeal to a US audience, who have no clue what Australia is like, or how an Australian talks. It's cringe worthiness at its best
Take for example all of the UK crime shows. If they were based on true life, who would even go to the UK as it's full of rampant crime, murderers etc. And then, everyone talks with a northern accent - except Morse of course. But then, there was one episode filmed in Australia

I did understand all that, especially that it is directed towards an American audience. Still awful! And definitely cringeworthy!

Was fun to see Nick from Blue Heelers, though. He's put on a few kg!
