Commissioned by Huddart/Parker & Co. as a passenger steamer. Launched in 1887 from where it was built on Scotland, this 728 tonner became too expensive to operate and was sold and stripped to be scuttled in the Bass Strait after 41yrs. She now lies in 42 m fully intact and is penetrable. Mosaic tiles are still visible and even the original wooden planking. The coral colors are rainbow and magical. The stern hosts bullseyes and huge crays and the odd artifact. It's a historic site so leave it there so others can see it too. Besides removal is illegal
