    It was last seen in distress in rough seas off the town of Wollongong, just south of Sydney, by another ship also caught in the storm.

    In the following weeks, bodies of crew washed up on Cronulla Beach, along with fragments of the ship’s steering wheel, doors and other wreckage.

    Wow what a mystery, I'm glad they finally figured out it sunk. They would never have figured that one out if they hadn't found the wreckage.
