The photos below were originally taken on slides, Gary has kindly scanned them and sent them through by e-mail to me. They were taken in April 1974 between Las Palmas and Cape Town. Gary has many more taken on the ship and will send them through at a later date.

Welcome all visitors to the S.S. Australis Website, which has now been online since 1998! I will continue to update the site if I receive a new story, or if you have interesting photos taken on the ship during your voyage on either the southbound, northbound, or on one of the South Pacific cruises. We used to do those trips several times a year from Melbourne, Sydney and Auckland (New Zealand). I am deeply moved by the interest and wonderful contributions from the numerous passengers and crew over many years. You can send an e-mail to me on the link below: A HUGE THANK YOU Warm Regards Ken
