| Below are small snippets of information that appeared in different newspapers illustrating how Jervis Bay was being utilised by the ships working along the NSW south coast. Of particular interest are the whaling boats . The Othello, Metaris, Waterwitch, Asmanby, Alladin, Sea Shell and Runnymede are all mentioned below, all hunting whales during this period….It’s little wonder the whales migrating along the coast were quickly depleted. |
