This was a long luxury yacht which was also known as Aras. This was the owners wife's name spelt backwards. In December 1930 she was laying achored in Descano Bay when she ran out of fuel in her gas generator. One of the crew members that was busy playing cards ran to the engine room to refill the generator. He didnt wait for the generator to fill and got back to the card game he was playing at the time. The generator overflowed the engine room when a spark set it on fire. Within minutes she was ablaze and eventually sank. She makes a beautiful reef with loads of coral and marine life.
