Summary[edit]

Description
English: 530 GRT cargo steamship Moruya, moored in the Brisbane River where the Story Bridge is today.
Caledonian Ship Building & Engineering Co of Preston, Lancashire built her in 1906 for the Illawarra & South Coast Steam Navigation Co. In 1912 the Australian Commonwealth Government bought her and renamed her Stuart. In 1913 Howard Smith Ltd's Australian Steamships Pty bought her, reverted her name to Moruya and registered her in Melbourne. In 1938 Mollers Towages bought her, renamed her Jessie Moller and registered her in Shanghai. Japanese forces captured her in 1941 and she was restored to Mollers after Japan's unconditional surrender in 1945. She was damaged in 1949 and subsequently scrapped.
