Publisher: John Oxley Library, State Library of Queensland Is Part Of: Accession number: D5-1-91 Date: Undated Summary: King's survey ship 'Mermaid' travelled northward from Sydney in 1819 on a journey to the Torres Strait. While navigating the inner route between the Great Barrier Reef and the mainland, King added much to the information recorded by Cook and Flinders. For many years this passage was known as King's Route and his sailing directions for it were much esteemed. King discovered the Liverpool River and Cambridge Gulf. In 1823, the ship was used on Oxley's journey when the Brisbane River and the Tweed River were discovered. Archaeologist believe they have found the wreck of the Mermaid, missing for 180 years on Flora Reef off Cairns.
