Designed to work the port of Foxton when fully loaded but when she arrived in Nelson it was obvious that this could not happen. She was used subsequently on the West Coast coal trade and later the Onehunga service. Broken up at Wakatahuri, Marlborough Sounds in 1950.
Photo taken when berthed at Queens Wharf 10 Wellington. Building in the background was the old Harbour Board Head Office which became the Wellington Maritime Museum now called the Museum of Wellington.Date posted25th November 2010
