The Ship of Ice is a 1946 Australian verse about Antartica by Rosemary Dobson.
According to one account "The story is of an English schooner, the Jenny, which sailed from Lima, Peru, in 1823 and was discovered 37 years later, frozen in an Antarctic ice pack. The skipper of a whaler, who discovered thle long-missing ship, went on board and found the bodies of the captain, his wife, and members of the crew perfectly preserved."
It won the Sydney Morning Herald's 1946 Poetry Competition.
The poem was published in a collection of Dobson's work in 1948.
Radio version
The poem was produced on ABC radio in 1947. It was produced again in 1949.
