A refreshment booth was organised, playground equipment was brought in for young children and races and other activities set up for the older ones and the excursions became a great success.

Wanting to participate in the takings from those shore activities he took an opportunity in November 1894 to buy the principal 125 acres section of beachfront in Days Bay, got permission to build a wharf and had the rest of the Bay surveyed. Twelve months later his wharf was finished though he ran his first excursion there the month before on 9 October 1895.
