The Port Elizabeth harbour wall – Featured Blog

Today's posts from our featured Port Elizabeth Blogger: The Port Elizabeth harbour wall: The Port Elizabeth harbour achieved "port" status for the first time in 1825, long before a proper harbour even existed.  Back then a harbour master was appointed to regulate and oversee the offloading of ships anchored offshore with goods and people being brought to shore in rowboats.  An official surfboat service was established in 1836 and this was followed by the construction of the first jetty in 1837. It wasn't until 1933 and the construction of the Charl Malan Quay (No.1 Quay, now used …

And no-one fell in the water

MyPE Logo

Franck and Delphine Lechifflart performed the first of their FREE acrobatic shows from their sailboat, La Loupiote, at the Algoa Bay Yacht Club last night. The first of the two 20 minute long shows at 6:00 pm was in the style of old Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin movies and called 'The Sailors' which saw Franck and Delphine performing some classic slapstick whilst precariously balancing on boom, spinnaker pole, mast and halyards. An appreciative audience gave the show their 'thumbs-up'. Audience members gathered on the grass and deck of the Algoa Bay Yacht club to watch the free …

Fresh fish on the PE Harbour – Featured Blog

Today's posts from our featured Port Elizabeth Blogger: Fresh fish on the PE Harbour: We've never been to the fish shops on the harbour to buy fresh fish but a Saturday or two ago, in search of finding something else to make for dinner than just the usual stuff, we decided to go and have a look.  We landed up in Fisherman Fresh (throw a left as you enter the harbour at the Baakens entrance and follow the signs).  An amazing selection of fresh and frozen fish and other seafoods and so much cheaper than our local supermarkets and the Fruit and Veg down the road from home. We ended …

Today's posts from our featured Port Elizabeth Blogger: Surfing the Harbour mouth: Ask anyone who lives and works up on the hills above the city centre about the lekker rights that break in the harbour mouth on a decent swell. Plenty of ou's will sit and gaze at the seemingly off-limit peelers just wondering what it would be like to surf them.Well, back in 2003 longboarder Steve McKechnie did just that. Steve took action instead of just wondering "what if" and arranged to surf the elusive Harbour Rights. Here's his story:"It was rather scary as not too much is known about the …

Harbour porpoises are skilled hunters and eat almost constantly – Featured Blog

MyPE Logo

Today's posts from our featured Port Elizabeth Blogger: Harbour porpoises are skilled hunters and eat almost constantly: Harbour porpoises have sometimes been described as ‘living in the fast lane.’ Being smaller than other cetaceans and living in cold northern waters means that the porpoises require a lot of energy to survive, making them prone to starvation. Now researchers have monitored harbour porpoises in the wild with tiny computers attached to them by […] Source: Sardine Run Port Elizabeth. 23/6/2012 – Humpback Whales breaching close to shore – Humpback Whale …

And here I thought that Cat videos were the viral ticket of all time. Damn, I must be way off of the curve! Yesterday's most read article on the MyPE Facebook page was THIS ONE. I am thinking that maybe we should just shift Bayworld to ABYC in the harbour! By way of explanation: I posted this video - Cat Discovers Water first - and then the one you see above. The Dolphin video has had four times as many views as the Cat video. …

Are we exchanging a mountain of manganese for scrap?

The proposed curbs on scrap metal shipments out of the country by the South African government are feared to threaten the very existence of the industry. The government had proposed punitive amendments to the price preference system governing scrap metal exports during December last year. As per the proposed system, scrap metal exporters in the country are first required to offer their stock to domestic consumers at a discount of 10%-30% to the export price. The administration has also complicated the export licensing procedures, with the aim of discouraging scrap metal …

Fish and chips at Struibaai Harbour – Featured Blog

Today's posts from our featured Port Elizabeth Blogger: Fish and chips at Struibaai Harbour by The Firefly Photo Files: I always think that the guys along the coast in the Western Cape are very fortunate because of the amount of fresh fish available to them from all the fishing harbours.  Whenever we get to travel in the province we like to go and have fish and chips from a local takeaway, usually overlooking the harbour and surrounds.  During December we were camping in the Overberg and did a daytrip from Gansbaai to Agulhas.  Somewhere in between the Damselfly …
