The Silversea Silver Muse was almost part of a rescue evacuation from Mallacoota. The Australian Navy had requested their assistance and the Muse reversed course and headed for Mallacoota. For whatever reason the request was cancelled and the Muse resumed her course to Sydney. Good on them to be willing and able to assist even though eventually called off. There was a separate posting in the Silversea Facebook group with photographs taken on the Muse where even out at sea the smoke was so thick nobody was out on deck. Sad and dangerous situation for almost the whole country.
