SS Port Kembla : ウィキペディア英語版 | SS Port Kembla
The SS ''Port Kembla'' was a steamer owned by the Commonwealth and Dominion Line and named after Port Kembla, New South Wales, Australia. It was sunk off Farewell Spit on New Zealand's South Island on 18 September 1917 by a mine laid by the German auxiliary cruiser SMS ''Wolf''. During an inquiry held in Wellington shortly after the sinking it was thought that the explosion was from an internal source rather than a mine. When it sank the ship was fully laden with frozen produce, wool, skins, tallow, jams, lead, and general cargo which was being shipped from Australia to Great Britain for World War I.〔 The ship lies at a depth of and is visited by scuba divers. In 2012 plans were being made for a second attempt to recover 1200 tonnes of lead from the ship. An earlier attempt in 1977 did not come to fruition because of ownership disputes. ==References==
