<p>The MARAMA, a handsome twin-screw Clyde-built liner of 6,437 tons, launched in 1907, replaced the pioneer MIOWERA, which was placed in Australia-New Zealand service as the MAITAI. The vessel served the Canada-Australia routes for the Canadian Australian Royal Mail Steamship Co. The MARAMA arrived in Vancouver on April 8, 1908, remaining on the route with the MAKURA until the outbreak of World War I. Her 8-cylinder triple-expansion engines developed 7,500 horsepower at a speed of 16 knots. (Source: Newell, Gordon, ed. "The H.W. McCurdy Marine History of the Pacific Northwest."
