The small motor ship Melva was built in Auckland, New Zealand in 1946. From 1948 she was chartered to salvage war material in the Pacific and later used for trading in the Cook Islands. In 1957 she was sold to Dartim Shipping for trade between Australia and Timor, being refitted in Brisbane in 1958 before entering that service. In 1961 she arrived in Townsville for repairs but was impounded due to debts owed by the owner. She was scuttled off Townsville on 2 September 1966.
