Woodlark
Captain Josh Moore first arrived at the Bay of Islands from Port Jackson Woodlark on 18 November 1820, calling in on their way to the fishery.
It wasn’t until April 1822 that Woodlark was back, and only briefly before heading out again for the fishery and Sydney.
In January 1823 and March 1824, Captain Moore brought Woodlark into the Bay of Islands again while on whaling voyages.
By 1829, Woodlark had a new master, Captain Edwards, and when they arrived at Sydney after a year at sea, they had a full cargo of 220 tons of oil. After two months at port, Edwards sailed Woodlark out again for the sperm fishery, returning 14 months later with 190 tons of sperm whale oil.
In December 1830, Woodlark had another new captain, Grimes, when she set sail from Sydney for the sperm fishery once more.
