A part of the shipwreck of the SS Maheno on Fraser Island. I found out later that one isn't really allowed to get so close to the wreck, but what the heck 😃

The word Maheno means ‘island’ in Maori, which is the native language of New Zealand. The Maheno was built in Scotland in 1904 and was the world’s first ever triple screw steamer, weighing a massive 5323 tonnes. It was sold for scrap and being towed when the Maheno was hit by an unseasonal cyclone off the coast of Fraser. Attempts were made to refloat the Maheno unsuccessfully and eventually it was left abandoned on what is now known as 75-mile beach.
