Let's explore the west coast of Tasmania. It began as a penal colony with convicts being sent from England. Neil Oliver visits with a family whose son was awarded the Victoria Cross posthumously. Dr Alice Garner highlights the fight between environmentalists and the energy sector over a river. Emma Johnston boards the ship named Investigator as it sets sail for the Southern Ocean. Dave Johnston visits with a naval architect to learn about an experiment being conducted to help lessen erosion caused by boat wake. This episode also joins a dive in search for sea spiders. Part of the "Coast Australia" series.
