"The Rip" is a power of nature beyond human control. This is an extremely dangerous pass which links Port Phillip to Bass Strait. It is not wide at all. The tides are so powerful that "The Rip" has caused many human and material losses. Experts are unanimous about it: it is the world's most dangerous shipping path. From or into Melbourne, you can not avoid it as it is the only crossing possible for boats. We experienced it recently on our way to Tasmania. You certainly feel it!
