HISTORY 1953-1993
KEY (depths approx)

1915

Built in America as a cargo steamship some 120 meters long Armed for World War Two with two guns.

1942
Torpedoed 11 January by Japanese submarine 15 kilometers S.W of Lombok while carrying a cargo of row rubber and railway parts. It was towed to Bali by US destroyers but she was taking too much water to make port. The crew was evacuated and she was beached at Tulamben.

The Japanese advance prevented recovery of the cargo.

From 1942 - 1963 she was tripped of valuable cargo, propellor, metal etc.

1963
Mt Agung erupts - earth tremors caused the hulk to slip into deep water, breaking the hull in at least two places and causing the superstructure to fall into deeper water.
