The 'HMS Swallow' was sold by the Royal Navy in 1836 to the South Australian Company and was renamed 'South Australian'. Chartered to carry free colonists and cargo to South Australia, she sailed from Portsmouth under the command of Captain Alexander Allen, arriving in South Australia on 22 April 1837. Severe storms on the 8th December 1837 saw the loss of the 'South Australian' which was blown from its moorings while anchored in Rosetta Harbour and the 'Solway' was also wrecked on the reef.
The Shipwreck was rediscovered on 20th April 2018 and now has a 30 metre radius protected zone around the shipwreck site.
