Historic shipwreck uncovered on Victorian beach

"I don't think people are aware of the value of the shipwreck, it is the most significant shipwreck on Victoria's coast and it is the only wooden shipwreck so we have to respect it and appreciate what we have in Inverloch," Ms Bugeja said.It washed up at Inverloch just four days later.

"We want to teach people about the story of the Amazon and its demise and sort of more importantly why we should appreciate and respect such items of heritage value." "The text is pretty much formalised and illustrations are being done at the moment and we hope later in the year it will be published," Bugeja said.

"A lot of people know nothing about this shipwreck, so talking about where it came from, what kind of ship it was, where it came from and what happened to it, how it ended up on the beach, " chairperson Trilby Parise said.Ms Parise said the long-term plan is to showcase some of the preserved artefacts in a museum.

"We can't preserve every piece of the shipwreck, that is just not going to happen, so we have to be really careful about which pieces get chosen and what is significant enough to go through the preservation process," she said."We would just encourage people that the only thing they take away are photos and memories," Ms Bugeja said.
