Additional Information
Koombana Days is both maritime and social history. It traces the short, colourful career of the SS Koombana, and explores the coastal life of Western Australia in the early years of the twentieth century.
The elegant, ultra-modern S.S. Koombana arrived in Western Australia in March 1909. After only three years of Nor-West service, the ship and her entire complement disappeared in a late-summer cyclone off the Pilbara coast. The vessel has never been found, and the tragedy remains unexplained. Koombana Days is the story of the ship and of the people in whose lives she figured so large.
