Porthole from the S.S. Keilawarra

The porthole was raised from the wreck accidently by a local fisherman c. 1980. The Keilawarra was sailing north on a regular trip to Brisbane. On 8th December 1886 it was rammed by the Helen Nicoll. It is believed over 40 people perished, including women and children. The site now serves as a memorial to those who tragically drowned.
