Athena was built by Middle Dock Company with one deck, a round stern, a billet head and no galleries. The first owner in Australia was Henry Simpson of Adelaide who registered it at that port in 1872 (No. 10/1872). In 1884 it was again registered at Adelaide (No. 10/1884), this time by Simpson Bros & Partners; the brothers being J.L. and W.A. Simpson. McIllwraith McEacharn & Co. Ltd...
