[QUOTE="HeadsUp, post: 38123, member: 414"] The ship sailing from Sydney to shanghai in 1866 , although a little early , may have contained gold . I also recall reading old newspaper stories of many miners being drowned when their dinghy capsized or sank while rowing out to their ship with their gold booty prior to sailing back to china. There was only two or three decent harbours in the gold rush era [/QUOTE]
