Spirit of Tasmania departing Melbourne view from back deck

We are on board the Spirit of Tasmania II which has just left its berth at the inner end of station pier Port Melbourne. It has turned and is starting its voyage from Melbourne, initially down Port Phillip Bay to the heads and then across Bass Strait to Devonport Tasmania. Behind can be seen the cruise ship Nautica which had berthed about two hours previously at an outer berth of Station pier. To the left can be seen the remains of the historic Princess pier which is in the process of being dismantled. Some of the city buildings can be seen in the background to the right. The date is February 04 2010. Also, there is another video posted, featuring the Nautica, taken from Spirit of Tasmania II as it she was reversing past Nautica to turn.
