Located between North Stradbroke and Moreton Islands, Queensland


The ship got stuck on the great sandbar between the islands during WW2, was partially salvaged by cutting in halves.

For years the wreck was a good place to find a lobster or two within the wrecks engine room. Eventually the wreck collapsed with nothing visible above water.
