English: Puritan was a steel-hulled four-masted barque built in 1889 by John Reid & Co, Port Glasgow for Sir Roderick W. Cameron, Glasgow.

Sold in 1903 to Augustus E.G. Oelricks, New York and in 1909 to Charles P.M. Jack, New York. In 1911 she sprang a leak in storm and the crew abandoned her at 24°S, 142°W, 800 miles from Tahiti on voyage from Newcastle, NSW, to San Francisco. The captain's boat reached Tahiti, another was saved by a passing steamer and the third was lost.[1][2]
