Hazard (ship)

Hazard was of unknown tonnage, probably built in Sydney in 1800.

[1] In March 1809, three ships, Argument, Experiment, and Hazard left Pittwater, New South Wales, bound for Sydney with a cargo of wheat.

A squall arose and Hazard was driven onto Box Head, 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Barrenjoey, New South Wales.

Her master, Andrew Lusk, got into the ship's boat but was unable to persuade his single crew member, a boy, to join him.

The boy was washed overboard and was dragged from the surf by some Aborigines.
