This newspaper advertisement from W. E. Clouston & Co., agents at Blenheim, advises passengers and freighters of the service provided between Blenheim and Wellington (NZ).
More images related to the s.s Blenheim are located in the Album BLENHEIM
Blenheim
The s.s. Blenheim was built at Forster, NSW by the well-respected shipbuilder, Henry Miles. She was launched on 4th July 1905 and christened by Miles’ wife, Annie. She was a shallow draught wooden steamer of 130 tons, and was to be fitted as a passenger and cargo boat. She was built to the order of Messrs. W. E. Clouston and Co. On the 8th July she was towed by the steamer Tuncurry to Sydney for fitting of engines.
Details:
Official No: 121107
Length: 109.0 ft
Breadth: 23.5 ft
Depth 6.7 ft
Tonnage:
Gross: 150.58
Net: 85.04
Construction: wood
Engines: surface condensing engines, with cylinders of 13in and 26in, with a stroke of 18in; fitted by Begg and Greig
Boiler: 1201b pressure to the square inch.
Accommodation: 24 passengers (including eight ladies)
On Saturday 21st October 1905 “She left Sydney for Wellington with a full cargo of hardwood piles and timber, to be used for the further extension of Messrs W. E. Clouston and Co.'s Blenheim wharf. The Blenheim is expected to reach Wellington on Friday, and to make her appearance up the river on Sunday next.” {Marlborough Express, 25th October 1905}. She indeed arrived at Blenheim on Sunday 29th October.
From 1905 to 1907 she operated from the Opawa River, Blenheim for the Wellington-based Marlborough Steamship Co. At Blenheim she was managed by W.E. Clouston and operated from their wharf.
In 1907 she was attached to the Wairau Steamship Company Ltd. (a subsidiary Union Steamship Company of New Zealand) and continued operating between Blenheim and Wellington. In June 1909 she made headlines when the small steamer Wootton, also built by Henry Miles, was found adrift in the Cook Strait after her engines failed. Blenheim took her in tow to near Cape Palliser and then needed to drop the tow line due to insufficient coal to get both vessels to Wellington. The epic story of Wootton and her return to Lyttleton is covered in the information for Wootton
On 1st July 1917 The Wairau Steamship Co. was taken over by P&O and, in 1919, Blenheim was re-measured changing the Tonnage from
Gross: 151 to 153
Net: 85 to 87
Arawua
In 1924 Blenheim was sold to the Fisheries Ltd, Wellington and renamed Awarua. She commenced operation as a trawler and became the centre of much interest in September 1926. On the night of 16th September, the steamer Makura picked up signals from an unknown vessel near Palliser Bay; the signals indicated that the vessel was out of coal and requested assistance. Makura was unable to assist and continued to Wellington, alerting authorities by wireless. The Awarua was overdue from the Chatham Islands and a search was commenced for the missing Awarua. Nothing was seen of the vessel and it was not until the 21st September that she was located by the warship Dunedin, off Napier. The Register (22 September 1926) reported the event:
AWARUA IN PORT - BATTLE WITH THE SEA. WELLINGTON. Tuesday.
The cruiser Dunedin towed the Awarua into Napier about midday. All aboard were well, and the vessel was undamaged, except for splintered bulwarks, where the Dunedin crashed into her. The crew had a strenuous time battling with elements, and some had almost given up, hope when the cruiser hove in sight. A farewell message had been placed in a bottle ready to be thrown overboard. The vessel drifted up the coast in a helpless condition, only slight assistance being received From trysails fore and aft. These gave enough steerage way, however, to keep the vessel clear of land. For several days the deck was awash, and it became necessary to man the pumps. The weather moderated and the ship endeavoured to turn to land, but a fresh gale sprang up, and the fight was resumed. There was still enough food to continue the rations for 10 days, but the water was almost exhausted. The Dunedin sent across supplies by raft, it being too rough for the warship to approach the steamer. The Dunedin had difficulty in towing the Awarua, on account. of the wash restricting speed to three knots.
Tamatea
In 1928 Awarua was purchased by Captain R. J. Hamilton in Bluff (near Invercargill) and renamed Tamatea. It appears she was converted from a steamer to diesel power at this time. the MV Tamatea operated the regular ferry service between Bluff and Stewart Island from 1930 to 1942. She came to the attention of the newspapers in August 1931 when she went to the assistance of four men who had been living on the Campbell Islands and who had not seen a ship for two years. The Campbell Islands, which form part of the territory of New Zealand, are about 290 miles to the south from Bluff. The report from Evening Post, 4 August 1931, describes the rescue as follows:
CAMPBELL ISLAND
MAROONED MEN BACK - STOCK LEFT UNATTENDED
This Day. An interesting story of island life and the hardships caused by lack of proper food is told by Messrs. John and Arthur Warren, who, with Messrs. Harry Warren and A. Spence, were brought to Bluff on Sunday night by the steamer Tamatea after a lonely, stay of two years on Campbell Island. Mr. J. Warren and his nephew Arthur took over the island from a syndicate in 1926, Mr. A. Warren travelling there in December of that year and Mr. J. Warren following a year later. Regular yearly steamer visits were made until August, 1929. Since that time, however, the four men, until the Tamatea visit, had been completely out of touch with the outside world. In 1926 there were 3000 sheep on the island, but the number has increased to over 4000. What their fate and that of the 16 head of cattle on the island is to be is at the moment uncertain. Nobody has been left at the island, and it is probable that it will remain deserted unless arrangements can be made for regular steamer visits. The Tamatea brought back 124 bales of wool and skins, as well as over 100 sealskins, which are stated not to be worth a great deal at the present time. Before the Tamatea went to the island great uneasiness was being felt for the safety of the men. The last steamer to call had taken provisions for a year. It now transpires that before the year was up the men realised that rationing might be advisable. As time went on it became necessary to mix tapioca, rice, sago, and split peas, which were ground as finely as possible, with flour, and this was used for the making of bread. Gradually the proportion of flour in the mixture was reduced, until in November last supplies of flour ran out. As the months passed the stores of food became less and less, and from April until relief arrived, a period of over three months, the men lived entirely on tea, mutton, fish, and the flesh of a variety of shag found on the island. In the early stages of the rationing period the men's health was seriously affected, Mr. Harry Warren suffering worst. According to Mr. Arthur Warren, it was "touch and go" for some time, and it was only due to the men's wisdom in rationing by degrees that they were able to accustom themselves to their sparse diet. Meals on the island had never been elaborate, but the last few months provided hardships which severely taxed the strength of the party. They realised that there was no escape, from their position until a vessel arrived, and by adopting a cheerful outlook they lived a more or less contented life. In fact, they became so accustomed to their diet that John Warren, considers they could have existed for some considerable time longer.
Alan Wright, Great Lakes Museum, provided the following information on the final years of her service. “The Tamatea was requisitioned by the US Army in 1943 and converted into a motor ship until returned to the New Zealand Government in 1945 and sold back to Captain Hamilton for further service. After conversion to a 500 BHP diesel engine she was remeasured as:
Gross tons: 179.94 tons
Net tons:69.29 tons
and Registered in Auckland (1/1946) to Master, Robert James Hamilton.
In 1950 she was sold to Port Vila (New Hebrides) interests (registered Port Vila 4/1950). She was run aground in the harbour at Port Vila and the hulk passed to French owners and dismantled - sometime prior to 25th July 1961.”

The pen is said to be mightier than the sword—an adage extolling the power of communication, of words, their democracy, their universality. Everyone can wield a pen to express their point of view and emotions, to assert an impact on the world. Writing enables people to leave traces of their lives, to tell their stories, to make a mark. Founded in 1906, Montblanc is synonymous with refined writing culture, offering quality luxury products of traditional craftsmanship, functional benefit and beauty, crafted with passion by master artisans, reflecting the high expectations of its customers.
Especially valuable in this modern age of technology, handwriting is a personal art form that gives expression to individual thoughts with a unique aesthetic. Montblanc wishes to inspire people to write by providing the instruments with which to create, to leave their own mark. Like a Stradivarius or a Steinway, Montblanc instruments are precisely geared, finely tuned artistic creations serving as tools for the creative endeavors of others. Paying homage to humanity’s great writers, artists, explorers and achievers with its limited-edition High Artistry collections, Montblanc wishes to celebrate through its writing instruments the power of the hand, and of humanity, to communicate more than just words.
Montblanc: Inspire Writing tells the remarkable story of a pioneering Maison striving since its very inception to inspire people to write, to let their thoughts flow across a page, to leave their mark, pen in hand. Through the words of journalist and author Alex Fury, punctuated by archive images, documents and striking new product visuals by photographer Laziz Hamani, the book reveals the multifaceted identity of Montblanc, as the summit of luxury writing instruments for people who strive for excellence and dare to make their individual mark with signature flair and style. It also reminds us of the power of handwriting and the traces of humanity found in every letter inked on paper.
Montblanc pens are in fact instruments, finely tuned artistic creations that serve as tools for the creative endeavours of others. With each of its editions, Montblanc continues to excite new creativity through the memory of creatives that have gone before, and who still create today - galvanizing others toward leaving their own mark, one handwritten word at a time.
