it sunk of barretts reaf but because the ships rader failed so the captain didnt know it was there, it knocked off the starboard propeller and not to long after the port engine failed as well. the ship couldn't steer so they droped the anchors but the waves were so strong the anchors just draged on the bottom. also the vechicle deck filled with water by going through the drains that were supposed to drain the water out the water kept riseing and it caused the ship to list badly everyone was called to abondon ship on starboard side as that side was low to the water.
one of the main causes was how cyclone giselle unexpectedly headed for wellington and combined with another storm this was the reason for the bad weather that shoved the wahine into barrets reef
