	South Wairarapa District - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The district is part of the Wellington region, although historically the Wairarapa as a whole has often been regarded as a separate region, and the people of South Wairarapa have more ties with other centres to the north of the district than they do with the capital itself.
		The topography of the district includes the floodplain of the Ruamahanga River and the associated Lake Wairarapa, as well as the long southern stretch of Palliser Bay and the eastern slopes of the Rimutaka Range, the crest of which forms the western boundary of the district.
		The southernmost point of the North island, Cape Palliser is in the South Wairarapa.

	SS Wairarapa
		There are stories of bravery in the face of life-threatening dangers and of those who gave their lives so that others might live while some were driven insane by the loss of family members and loved ones.
		Following these early incidents Wairarapa settled down to a life of trouble free service and thus it was that she commenced her final voyage at 6:00pm on Wednesday October 24th 1894.
		Into this gloom Captain McIntosh drove Wairarapa at her maximum speed of almost 14 knots, blatantly ignoring the safety of passengers and crew and refusing suggestions from his senior officers to slow down.
