White Wings Vol I. Fifty Years Of Sail In The New Zealand Trade, 1850 TO 1900

The Rooparell

The Rooparell.

When she arrived at Auckland on May 30, 1874, the ship Rooparell, Captain Sandberg, 95 days out from London, or 90 land to land, brought no less than 367 immigrants, the largest number ever brought to the port up to that date. The large number of people arrived in good health. During the passage there were three births and three deaths. London was left on February 24, the meridian of the Cape was passed on April 25, and land near the North Cape of New Zealand was sighted on the morning of May 29.
