Anjou (ship)
The ''Anjou'' was a 1642-ton, French steel barque built in 1899. It was wrecked in the Auckland Islands in 1905.
==Wreck==
The ''Anjou'' was sailing from Sydney to Falmouth with a cargo of wheat. In foggy weather at 8.30pm on 5 February 1905 it struck rocks at Bristow Point, Auckland Island. The ship listed to port and the seas began breaking over her. An attempt was made to launch the boats but when the first boat was destroyed Captain Le Tallec halted the launch and ordered the crew to stay on board overnight. At 6am the next morning another attempt to abandon ship was made and all three remaining boats made it safely to shore with no loss of life from the crew of 22.
On 7 February a signpost to the boat shed was discovered and the castaways went to Camp Cove. The crew took shelter in boat shed and hunted seals, birds and shellfish for food. It wasn't until the tenth day that they discovered the castaway depot and a notice that depot received regular visits from the New Zealand Government steam ships. The crew built additional huts of scrub and tussock and waited for rescue. Fearing that supplies of food would run short they continued to supplement their diet with local wildlife and also sought out the other depot on the Islands.
On 7 May 1905 Captain John Bollons anchored the ''NZGSS Hinemoa'' in Camp Cove and rescued the castaways. He restocked the castaway depots and returned to New Zealand with the crew of the ''Anjou'' via Campbell Island as was his normal route. Unlike other shipwrecks on the Auckland Islands the survivors had only a short stay of a little over three months before being rescued. Other castaways, such as those from the ''Grafton'', ''General Grant'', and ''Dundonald'', had significantly longer stays and suffered much hardship and loss of life.
