English: Iron barque Clan Macleod, which was later named the James Craig
The iron barque Clan Macleod was built in 1873 in Sunderland in the United Kingdom. The ship was constructed entirely of iron plates 1/2 an inch (12.7mm) thick, riveted onto iron frames and stringers. She was 179.8 feet long with a beam of 31.3 feet. She sailed in the Southern hemisphere from 1877, visiting Brisbane in 1879. Clan Macleod was eventually based in New Zealand and served the trans Tasman trade. In 1905 the Clan Macleod was renamed James Craig and in 1911 was sold to the British New Guinea Development Company and registered in Sydney. Altogether, the barque had made thirty five round voyages on the trans Tasman run with almost incident-free, service. In 1918 James Craig was sold to Henry Jones & Company, the well-known IXL food and produce merchant of Hobart. The James Craig almost foundered many times during her sea-going days but always managed to get back to a port. The James Craig was abandoned at Recherche Bay in southern Tasmania and never went to sea again. In 1930, while lying at anchor in Recherche Bay she broke her cable during a storm and ran aground. To avoid a possible hazard to navigation she then had a large hole blown in her stern and settled on the bottom of the bay in shallow water. |
