The Julie Burgess is the last of the beautiful Burgess Family fishing ketches that plied the waters of Bass Strait and its islands. The ketch was purpose built to harvest the rich crayfish fields of Bass Strait and Tasmania. The central well in the ketch made it possible to hold enormous amounts of live crays that were taken to the railway station at Stony Point in Westernport Bay for transportation to the Melbourne markets - still fresh! Volunteers have lovingly restored the ketch, so that you can relive the classic days of sailing in Bass Strait. Short sailings are regularly scheduled from October through to the end of June with dockside events and overnight sailing adventures advertised on the website. Please note minimum numbers apply and passengers should contact the Julie Burgess Inc. for bookings and departure times. Sailings go out the mouth of the Mersey River into Bass Strait towards Don Heads and passing the Bluff precinct. Extended sailings available on request.
