The ship was sailed northwards but was wrecked some 97 kilometres (60 mi) north of Port Stephens in what is now called Trial Bay. The survivors of the wreck constructed a new boat out of the remains of the ship but, according to the local aborigines, the ship capsized and all thirteen convicts were drowned. The master of the ship, William Bennett, his crew and some passengers, numbering eight or ten in total (including a woman and child) were abandoned at Trial Bay by the convicts. These survivors attempted to walk back to Sydney but disappeared without trace.
