The red souvenir flag with the Spirit of Tasmania name and TT Line logo was made to commemorate the Bass Strait ferry's last sailing from Melbourne. In July 1985, the Spirit of Tasmania 1 made her first voyage to Melbourne and from that date ferried passengers, vehicles and cargo to and from Devonport, Tasmania. Many passenger ferries have been employed in the Bass Strait passenger service since the 1840's. Ships using preceding the Spirt of Tasmania include the Taroona, Princess of Tasmania and the Abel Tasman. The flag was one of many distributed to the crowds gathered on the foreshore to farewell the ship. With her sister ship, Spirit of Tasmania 2, the red and white ferries had been a familiar sight at Station Pier, Port Melbourne for more than three decades.piers and wharves - station pier, spirit of tasmania, tt-line
