SS Sangola was a steam cargo liner that was launched in Scotland in 1901, renamed Goshu Maru in 1923, and scrapped in Japan in 1933.
She was one of a class of seven steamships that were built for the British India Steam Navigation Company (BI) in 1901 and 1902.
William Denny and Brothers of Dumbarton in Scotland, with whom BI had a preferential business relationship, built four of the ships.
Japanese shipowners bought Sangola, Santhia, and Sofala and renamed them.

That September she grounded at Fulta Point in the Hooghly River while inbound to Calcutta.
[5] She was renamed Goshu Maru and registered at Dairen in the Kwantung Leased Territory.
