 Queenscliff Regatta 23 - 25 February 2007
Another great Queenscliff Regatta What a heart-warming sight to see couta boats from around Port Phillip flock to their port of origin at Queenscliff for the annual Blessing of the Fleet. The central basin of Queenscliff Harbour was cleared for the visiting boats and flags and banners were flying from cranes, the slipway and the boats themselves. The Queenscliff Harbour will not be the same next year, as start of construction of Stage 2 is imminent and a larger T-shaped basin is created. The Blessing was conducted by Lewis Ferrier, Queenscliff's barefoot fisherman, who is still coutering in his boat Rosebud.
The Maritime Weekend was officially opened by Lisa Neville MLA, Minister for Mental Health, Children and Aged Care and representatives of the major sponsors were in attendance: Pat Semmens, Mayor of the Borough of Queenscliffe; Mal Poulter, Project Manager of the Queenscliff Harbour Development from Parks Victoria; and Tim Price, Director of Sinclair-Brook and Project Director, Queenscliff Harbour P/L.
