Marinas to Stay Overnight
Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron: http://www.bys-aus.com/
Cruiser Friendly, no problem taking the Mustang here. Overnight power, shower facilities. Close to Sorrento and a quick cruise over to Queenscliff. Good security at the marina. Need to be careful getting there from Williamstown. Waters get very shallow near Mud Island, follow the channel markers. Make a booking in advance to be safe.
Patterson Lakes Marina: ttp://www.pattersonlakesmarina.com.au/
Have unleaded fuel, places to eat. Be careful getting in to the river, best to go in at high tide. Gets very shallow.

Docklands: http://www.newquay.com.au/NewQuayMarina/
My favourite location. Lots of eating places to choose from. They have overnight power and great shower facilities. From $35.00 per night. Easy to park the Mustang. Plenty of berths. Leave the boat their while going to the Footy at the Telstra Dome.
Geelong: http://www.rgyc.com.au/about/marina_facilities.asp
Plenty of places to visit, walking distance to the marina
