can you find the arrival of the Isles of the South in Lyttleton, and see the passenger list?

There might well be a note made by the captain.

I know one of my ancestors had a baby on board a ship from Melbourne to California, and that was noted as an addition to the Passenger List

Hi, there is a family story that my ancestor Roger Bond Luscombe married Susan Jane Perrin(s?) aboard the 'Isles of the South" which left from Plymouth for Lyttelton in 1873. As I couldn't find their marriage records in either England or NZ I'm wondering if this story is perhaps true? Does anybody know how I could find out about this??
Thank you.
