Redbill: From Pearls to Peace

By Kate Lance

In the early 1900s, a lugger named Redbill was part of a Broome fleet that fished for luminous pearls and their surprisingly valuable shell.
Over a century of survival the boat raised a fortune from the sea, joined the wartime Navy, fought for Greenpeace, and offered a refuge for the dispossessed: indentured Asians, Indigenous people, immigrants, refugees, and desperate kids from city streets.
Redbill's uncanny ability to inspire love saw her resurrected again and again. But then she was left, alone, to confront tropical cyclone Rosita, the fiercest hurricane to hit Broome in ninety years.
