Greetings Plenty to report – perhaps more than we generally see reported on maritime matters in the mainstream media in print and radio. Eg. Station Pier, Docklands, Seafarers Rest Park, RAN ...MMHN advocacy is having an impact! Contents 1. Economic uplift delivered...

Greetings Often the news we share through the MMHN Update is concerning, this is not surprising - these are most challenging times with many global hostilities, environmental threats and subtle shifts in influence around our oceans – in particularly Australian waters....

Greetings We are commencing with a couple of ‘incident’ reports in Western Port Bay and in Port Phillip Bay. Both relate to an extent to the sub-optimal maritime infrastructure we have in Victoria. Contents 1. Submarine in Port Phillip Bay – now you see it, now you...
