Port of Fremantle control on marine channel 12 (156.600) is where you'll hear ships coming in and out of the harbour.

The tugs use channel 6 (156.300) while they're operating.

If you're interested in the marine side of things, I strongly recommend the marine radio handbook that can be downloaded at http://www.amcom.amc.edu.au/handbook/.

It's got a rundown of the 156MHz marine VHF frequencies: I recommend programming all of them into your scanner.
