George Bass and Matthew Flinders charted the waters around the island during their circumnavigation of Tasmania in 1798-99. Upon their return to Sydney, Gov. Phillip Gidley King named Flinders Island and Bass Strait in their honour.

welcome to French Island
pop: 116
French Island is the largest coastal island of Victoria, Australia, located in Western Port, 61 km SE of Melbourne.
The population of the island in 2011 was around 116 people, of which about 60 were permanent residents.
French Island is relatively isolated and undeveloped.
There are no mains water, mains electricity, or medical services on the island.
There is one small general store and post office located on Tankerton Road about 3 km from Tankerton Jetty.
Many of the locals actively promote environmental tourism.
Visitor accommodation includes camping, bed and breakfast, guesthouse and farmstay
There are a couple older geocaches on French Island as well as two newer caches.
As a member of Cache Guardians, I care for two and the other two I own.
Access to the island is by the Western Port Ferries passenger ferry running daily from Stony Point pier to Tankerton Jetty and then on to Cowes on Phillip Island. The crossing takes about 15 minutes.
The French Island Barge Company operates a vehicular ferry from Corinella on the eastern side of Western Port to the barge landing on French Island. It accommodates two standard size cars or a larger truck. Tourists are always welcome.
All supplies to the island come by the French Island Barge, which runs every day of the year, depending on tide and appointments.
Although I have many photos from my two visits to French Island, the one I have used here is courtesy of google.
Thanks for the welcome to cache beetles2.

Suscoe remembers out visit to Fremantle port area a couple of years ago, it was a delightful visit and we enjoyed our time there, wish we could be back there at the moment.

I’ve been here and, given that I’m teaching a student from here who I’ll likely visit some time, I’ll sadly probably return. It takes a certain type of person to live here. One that can tolerate lack of shopping, no beach, hot temps and flash flooding. Thanks.
Our Google Guy took us to Forster in New South Wales this morning and we got a big welcome as we came in from the south. The required screen dump has been aded to the Gallery. Thanks Beetles2 for the cache.
F is for "FARRELL FLAT"
Farrell Flat (formerly Hanson) is a town in South Australia. The town is located 20 kilometres (12 mi) east of Clare and 22 kilometres (14 mi) southwest of Burra on the former Peterborough railway line, in the Regional Council of Goyder. At the 2006 census, Farrell Flat and the surrounding area had a population of 294.
Farrell Flat 1912
Once the heart of a thriving farming community, Farrell Flat today is largely a satellite town to the larger towns nearby. It has retained its own identity, with a functioning hotel, cafe and meeting house, engineering business and grain silos.
The town was surveyed as Hanson in 1870 and did not officially become Farrell Flat until 19 September 1940. The name Farrell's Flat had been in use for some time, this being the name of the railway station. The nearby town of Davies was officially renamed to Hanson on 19 September 1940.
Farrell Flat was named for Colonial Chaplain and Dean of Adelaide, James Farrell (26 November 1803 – 26 April 1869)
