PROPped by the Bar EP28 - Portarlington's Port Phillip Ferries and the Grand Hotel with Murray Rance

In this huge episode we take a trip to the seaside and meet Little Group's - Murray Rance for a tour of Port Phillip Ferries 'Bellarine Express' - a state-of-the-art catamaran that carries up to 400 passengers daily between Portarlington and Melbourne. We also get a guided tour of the recently refurbished Grand Hotel and there's a special offer for PROPped subscribers (listen till the end). Watch-out for a catch-up with MCP's David Flood for the latest in interest rates and when he expects we will start to see rate cuts. This is one episode you can't afford to miss.
