    State Library of New South Wales Thanks for putting up these Milton Kent photos at such very high res. I am finding them fascinating for many other details as well as the bridge building process.

    Read All About It! ...
    WRECK OF THE FL0RANT. WOY WOY, Thursday.— The auxiliary fore-and-aft schooner Florant struck the east spit on the Brisbane Water bar at the flood tide, about 3.30 p.m. on Wednesday. She took the old boat channel which, owing to adverse winds, has silted up, and struck on a sunken rock, which went through the bottom on the starboard side. The heavy current at that point carried her to the eastward, and through the continual bumping she has lost her rudder, and is now full of water. There is very little hope of salving the hull. There are two Jersey City oil engines installed. The Florant was a regular trader between Sydney and Gosford, carrying general cargo and returning with timber. She is a vessel of about 40 tons, owned by the captain and others.

    Ah! the SS EKORBMEP at Cheekpoint with a dent in her nose A short time after 23rd February 1899.
  • derangedlemur said:
    SS Pembroke: She operated as a paddle steamer from 1880 to 1895; the following year returning to service with twin screws and new boilers, all this time on the Irish Sea. In 1916 Pembroke was transferred to work from Weymouth as a cargo boat but on 24 September she was attacked by a U-boat so the following January she was fitted with a gun for defence. She was sold for scrap in 1925
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    If this is at Cheekpoint, then it was her second - this timedeliberate - grounding after she hit the Saltees on 18th February 1899.
  • derangedlemur said:
    SS Pembroke aground at Cheekpoint, was apparently a thing. Edit: Too slow and not funny enough again.
