Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Queensland Government steam yacht Lucinda in full dress on the Brisbane River. Built in Dumbarton, Scotland in 1884, the 301 GRT steel paddle steamer Lucinda played a role in the development of the Australian Constitution. She was initially the official yacht for the Queensland Government, and the draft for the Australian Constitution Bill was revised aboard her during the Easter break of the 1891 Constitutional Convention in Sydney.
Lucinda was sold to the Riverside Coal Transport Company in 1923, who made her coal lighter until the end of her service in May 1932. She was scuttled on the south east side of Bishop Island at the mouth of the Brisbane River. This area has since been covered over and reclaimed as part of the Port of Brisbane expansion.
