The HMNZS South Seas was built in 1913 by Goole Ship Building and Repairing Co Ltd. She was lost off Point Halswell, Wellington Harbour, on December 19th 1942, after a collision with the inter-island ferry Wahine.

NB: You do have to ring the sister-island ferry company to get approval for diving on this particular wreck as it is in the path of the ferries.
