For anyone who's never heard of the Westgate punt:
[https://www.onlymelbourne.com.au/west-gate-punt](https://www.onlymelbourne.com.au/west-gate-punt)
Runs between Port Melbourne and Scienceworks. Cheap, and takes just over 5 mins to get across. A lot of people use it for cycling, pretty handy if you want to ride from the trail around Altona and Williamstown either to the city or along beach road!
(Also good for visiting Scienceworks and Grazeland of course!)
op never heard of the punt
Incredible, Google has betrayed me with its "walking 13 min". I wonder how many have drowned instead of waiting for the punt..
Flat or torpedo?
Need to turn off your ferry setting probably.
I don't see the problem here, I swim there all the time.
Kramer?
Imagine taking the Westgate punt?
Only $3 cheaper than the train!
TIL Google equivocates walking with taking a ferry. Thanks stranger
You're in public transport mode there, not walking mode. So it wants you to walk to the transit and catch it.
Google literally says "walk 13 min (1km), you can check if you'd like. I learned about the ferry in posting this, and I'll use it, thanks again.

It's a ferry. Thanks if and when I take my kids there I'll probably do this. Seems like fun.
It's actually awesome
Apparently there's a ferry that crosses that way? I've never seen it though.
What’s the matter mate. Scared of a lil swim in a polluted river under a freeway?
I've been in the Yarra once... wouldn't recommend it.
You’ve got it set to “swim”
It's a zip line, haven't you seen it before?
Haha it’s even better knowing that there is a train station a few k’s on the side that scienceworks is on as well 🤣
