The Dave and Malou Channel
August 1845. Just miles from safety, the emigrant ship Cataraqui struck the jagged reefs of King Island. Over 400 souls were lost in what remains Australia’s worst civil maritime disaster. We’re looking back at the tragic night that changed our maritime history forever. #thedavemalouchannel #shipwreck #cataraqui #australiahistory #truestories
