dated Dokkade, Vlissingen around 1890 (probably 1879)
According to an annoucement in the Middelburgsche
Courant dated 6 November 1869 was she lying at Vlissingen and the intention of
her master H. Böttcher to sell on an auction 6.000 Bessemer rails stored in the
govenment storehouse No. 8-9 in the Eerste Binnenhaven. Her homeport was
Antwerp, Belgium. Underway towards Santa Catherina entered she on 25 June
leaking Vlissingen and forced to ask for a loan of 40.000 Dutch guilders needed
apparently for repair costs. She was docked there in the dry dock Dok van Perry.
Called a frigate ship.
