Best Answer

The First Fleet had to wait until the arrival of the second Fleet for new supplies. This was just over 2 years and 4 months.

The second fleet arrived in early June 1790 with new settlers, and fresh supplies. The problem was, it also arrived with more convicts than the supplies catered for, and starvation in the colony remained a very real problem until the arrival of the Third Fleet in 1791.

Of course. The ships of the First Fleet carried a variety of fresh supplies as well as foods to last for a longer period of time. Some of the supplies were to sustain the new settlement once it was established in New South Wales. Fresh supplies such as meats, fruits and vegetables had to be purchased at each of the stops along the way.
