	Kwinana (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-06)
		Kwinana is actually an Aboriginal word, from the Kimberly region, meaning 'pretty maiden'.

		The rusting hulk of the Kwinana ship was cut down to low water level, and the centre was filled with limestone to form a platform as part of the jetty at Kwinana.
