City of Launceston Wreck

Steam ship, 368 ton.

She is in a protected zone and requires a permit to be dived.

She was built in Clyde, Scotland and Sunk: 19 November 1865 due to a collision with the SS Penola on the starboard side.

She now sits upright in 21M and is generally in quite murky waters.

There is an artists impression of the collision in our gallery and is held by John Oxley Library, State Library of Queensland., Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=14443341
