The Wandrahm of 400 tons was built in 1854 at Reiherstieg, near Hamburg.

Under the command of captain H C Decker the Wandrahm departed Hamburg bound for South Australia on 23 Apr 1854 on her maiden voyage.  She arrived in Port Adelaide on 8 Aug 1854.

The Wandrahm made further voyages to Australia in 1862 (to Port Adelaide) and 1867 (to Moreton Bay, Queensland),
