Maori
The old Maori, as she was familiarly
called, made several successful voyages to New Zealand in the early days. She was one of
Willis, Gann and Co's., ships, and made several voyages under the company's flag to
Auckland, Lyttelton, Nelson, Wellington and Dunedin, and in the sixties was chartered by
the Shaw Savill Co., to bring out immigrants. She made her first passage to Nelson,
arriving at that port on 25th December, 1851, bringing over 50 passengers. After
discharging she proceeded on to Wellington. The Maori was a ship of 800 tons, but for her
size was a very slow sailer, her average passages occupying about 120 days.
