 Other early whaling ships were the "Foxhound", a London whaler, in 1827 and the "Waterloo", which operated between Cloudy Bay and Sydney from 1829, taking 3 cargoes of whale oil per year and returning from Port Jackson with supplies and trade goods to exchange for flax.By the 1830s most whaling, apart from American ships, was done from shore bases with mixed crews of Maori and European sailors.In the first half of the 19th century, almost a hundred small shore stations were established - in the South Island at Te Awaiti and Preservation Inlet and later at Stewart Island, Otago, Timaru and Kaikoura and Cloudy Bay.
