Nella in the morning!
From an old slide (and later re-copied larger - view large). The blizzard blew through the night and into next morning. When the drifting snow became less (the wind still blowing), we found the Nella Dan hard against the rocks on the shore with the engines at half speed to keep her there. During the night the wind had broken all the mooring cables and she began drifting backwards toward West Arm of the harbour. The captain drove her aground to prevent damage. (NB the tattered remains of flags). In the afternoon the wind dropped and she reversed off the rocks. She was a tough ship. Two days later, with the outgoing Mawson expedition aboard she sailed, leaving us to await her return in twelve months.
For the background on the blizzard, see my previous image (shown in clickable PiP).
Some fifty years later, a later Australian icebreaker had the same problem in a blizzard, but was blown aground on the far shore of the harbour - fortunately without major damage.

I read on Wikipedia that the ship reached a sad end
tiabunna club has replied to Roger (Grisly) clubLosing a boat you have sailed on is like losing a person. I still feel the emotion of the news of the loss of the first tanker under my command in the Mediterranean Sea, it was sold to transport water to some Greek islands and years later it sank.
