Auckland
Ship: 1245 tons
Captain: Stevens
Surgeon Superintendent:
Sailed Glasgow 27th August 1874 - arrived Dunedin 21st November 1874
A noted ship of the Shaw Savill and
Albion Fleet was the Auckland, which, however, must not be confused with the ship City of
Auckland. The Auckland was one of the fastest and smartest ships afloat of her day. She
was built at Robert Duncan's yard in '74; was still classed 100 A1 at Lloyd's till wrecked
a few years ago. She was built and equipped with the best of everything procurable, and on
lines of perfect symmetry a thing of beauty and joy to the heart of any
sailorman.
