WA Historical Vessels Register

The Western Australian Historical Vessels Register is a record of all the vessels registered in WA between 1856 and 1969. This was produced by Rod Dickson, Honorary Life Member of the Maritime Heritage Association. We have made the record available as a downloadable pdf file.
