At Port Fairy’s East Beach, even in the bitterly cold months of winter, it’s a normal sight to see a group of people in nothing but bathing suits, submerging a man right into the ocean in a wheelchair. The man in the chair is Jim Pevitt and he is being helped into the ocean for his daily ritual: an icy ocean dunking.
