Claudine (1811 ship)

They were at Anjer Roads on 10 November, with Claudine having run on a coral reef the day after leaving Batavia.

She rejoined Juliana on 7 January 1816, and touched St Helena the next day; the two vessels finally parted at Ascension Island.

On 9 February Claudine ran into bad weather 35 leagues off St Michael's Mount.

At 8:43 pm on 10 February Claudine experienced an earthquake that lasted four or five seconds; the crew had to jettison some cargo to stay afloat in the subsequent waves.

[6] Claudine's owners applied for a licence from the East India Company on 29 March 1816, and received it the same day.

[3] On 12 April 1817 Claudine struck a reef near Palau Mansalar (1°36′12″N 98°30′39″E / 1.60333°N 98.51083°E / 1.60333; 98.51083), off the west coast of Sumatra.

[7] Then in September 1818, Claudine pioneered the northern route through the Torres Strait as she sailed from Port Jackson to Batavia.

[8] During this voyage, in company with the ship Mary, a survivor from the 1814 wreck of the Morning Star was rescued from Murray Island (Mer), northeast Torres Strait on 7 September.

She sailed via Tenerife and Rio de Janeiro to Hobart Town, arriving on 15 December.

[15] Captain William Heathorn sailed Claudine from London on 24 August 1829, and she arrived at Sydney on 6 December.

A storm on 21–22 November 1840 led Captain Brewer to beach Claudine ashore near Ramsgate.
