Departing south and passing over Carrum at 800ft is an unfortunate choice to say the least (assuming that is what you did).
Helicopters overfly approach points at 700 ft so as to separate from fixed wing.
Outbound tracking over or near any approach point (at less than 2000ft) is risky in my opinion - just because northbound should be over water doesn't mean you aren't asking for trouble tracking so close to an approach point.
