Bangalore (1792 ship)

On 20 August 1792 Bangalore was under the command of Captain Wilson when a heavy gale drove her across the tail of the Saugor Sand.

Charts that accurately described water depths enabled Wilson to navigate into Channel Creek and then to safety in Randall's Cove.

[8] Under the command of Captain James Frayer, Bangalore was at Calcutta on 15 February 1796 and left Bengal on 22 March.

She reached Saint Helena on 4 July and Crookhaven on 27 November, before arriving at Blackwall on 17 December.

[a] The wreck may have occurred on "Jagger's Reef" ("Bangalore Shoal") around 7°40′S 121°13′E / 7.667°S 121.217°E / -7.667; 121.217 in the Flores Sea.
