Cast off to seek safety from the shore in a southerly gale on 22 April 1901, but caught on the mud and keeled over when her anchors dragged. Water filled the hull and she sank. Due to the normally sheltered nature of the site, most cargo and fittings were salvaged at the time. Normally very sheltered, particularly from the east and south-east. An easy dive for beginners, but can get muddy after rain and if silt is raised by divers.
Few artefacts are left, however considerable hull structure is still there, though under the mud.
About 200 metres off Preservation Island. The reef rises out of the water. History Fully rigged ship built at Newcastle UK on 1873. Hit the rocks on 17th September 1875 while seeking shelter on the western side of the Furneaux group. A most spectacular dive.
