The photos below were sent to me by Graham Lenton who was a passenger on the ship in 1976. He is a friend of Vic Wilms who travelled with him on the same Northbound trip.

You can read Vics account of their journey on the Australis by reading the  "In Their Own Words"   section of this site.

Graham has sent new photos taken on the Australis: Graham Lenton's Second Picture Collection.

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
