Abstract
The brigantine/schooner Thistle was a highly significant vessel in Australian history and was involved in the early settlement of Western Australia and New Zealand. The vessel's greatest importance lies in the part which it played in the first permanent pastoral settlement by Europeans of that part of the coast of Australia that later became the State of Victoria.
