MV North Head
The MV North Head (formerly SS Barrenjoey) was a ferry operated by the Port Jackson & Manly Steamship Company and its successors on the Manly service from 1913 until 1985. The vessel was launched as Barrenjoey, a steamer and one of the six "Binngarra" type Manly ferries which were built between 1905 and 1922. In 1951, she was converted to diesel-electric power, completely rebuilt and renamed North Head. She was removed from service in 1985 following the introduction of the Freshwater class ferries. She spent time in Hobart as a floating restaurant, and in 2000, she was taken to Cairns where she remains grounded and in deteriorating condition.
