ROTTENrow on the Tamar in Launceston just up-river from Kings Wharf is where, traditionally, ships and boats of various kinds that have reached the end of their usefulness have been left to the elements. The Maritime Board left PONRABBEL to her fate on ROTTENrow in the 1960s after salvaging her engines and superstructure down-river at Beauty Point – Launceston's new port. She was no longer needed to keep the port of Launceston accessible, so now she lay there waiting for her ultimate fate whatever that may be.
