Talk:HMQS Gayundah

6 inch bow gun ??
"For this cruise, the 6" bow gun was removed to provide greater bunkering for coal to increase the ship's range.". The bow gun was 8-inch; the stern gun was 6-inch. Rcbutcher (talk) 14:28, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

During the course of her history Gayundah initially sported an 8" gun, which was later replaced with a 6" gun, anmd whichwas later gotten rid of entirely of course.

Gayundah Brisbane arrival date incorrect. Paluma reference incorrect.
In the under construction section appears the following inaccurate paragraph: "In concert with Paluma, the ship sailed for Australia in November 1884, travelling via the Suez Canal, under the command of Captain Henry Townley Wright. The ships arrived in Brisbane on 28 March 1885.[3]"

I recommend this be changed to "Gayundah sailed for Australia in November 1884, under the command of Captain Henry Townley Wright. Having traveled via the Suez Canal, the ship arrived at Brisbane on 27 March 1885."

The above is a necessary change as Paluma sailed for Australia at a later date, she arrived in Brisbane on 7 May 1885 as stated on the wikipedia HMQS Paluma entry.
