SS Pericles

3D Model

SS PEricles was 152.6m long, 19.0m beam, and 12.0m draught, with a double bottom for the full length of her hull and eight watertight compartments to help keep her afloat in case her hull was breached.

The SS Pericles was wrecked in 1910 off the coast of Western Australia, but without loss of life. Federal Australian law now protects the wreck off Augusta for its historic significance. The wreck lies in 35m of water.

A significant amount of data collection is needed to finish this model due to the size. The site is over 150m long and the engines 10m high, see the cray pot at the bottom of one of the engines to get a sense of scale. Strong currents and limited visibility made this model a challenge. in the short time we had available. Hopefully we can get back to this in 2025.
