Incidents
On 12 January 1808 Amphitrite, Colburn, master, was driven onshore at Ryde, but was gotten off without damage.[2]
On 21 October 1808 as Amphitrite was sailing from Halifax to Bedec, New Brunswick, and London, she was driven on shore near Pictou, Nova Scotia. She was gotten off on 6 November, but then grounded again near Bedec. Her crew was saved.[3]
On 28 October 1814 Amphitrite, Ferguson, master, was sailing from to Petersburgh to Glasgow when she got on shore at Gothland. It was expected that she would be got off.[4] A report a week later stated that she had been gotten off and taken into Grangemouth.[5]
The Register of Shipping for 1833 (published in 1832), shows Amphitrite with R. Murray, master, Lyall & Co., owner, and trade Portsmouth transport, changing to London–New South Wales.[6]
Loss
Captain John Hunter sailed Amphitrite from Woolwich, Kent, England on 25 August 1833, bound for New South Wales. She had embarked 108 female convicts and 12 children.[7]
While sailing off Boulogne, Pas-de-Calais, France she encountered a gale that blew her ashore on 31 August. Hunter refused offers of aid from the shore, due to his concern that if the prisoners got on shore some might escape, and his belief that a rising tide would free her.Шаблон:Sfnp The ship subsequently broke up with the loss of 133 lives; only three crewmen survived.[7][8]
