Caledonia was launched in 1780 in Spain. She apparently was taken in prize circa 1797. She made one voyage to the Caribbean and then under a subsequent owner made five voyages as a whaler in the Southern Whale Fishery. She may then have become a transport, but though listed in the registries until 1813, does not clearly appear in ship arrival and departure data after 1805.

Career

Caledonia first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR) in 1798.[1] She may have been a prize.[2]

Captain Baynes Reed acquired a letter of marque on 11 September 1798.[3] Caledonia then proceeded to sail to the Caribbean. Lloyd's ListШаблон:'s ship arrival and departure data shows only one voyage, starting in late 1798. She sailed from London to Barbados, Barbados to Baltimore, back to Barbados, and then to London, arriving in late 1799.

Fate

Caledonia was last listed in LR and the Register of Shipping in 1813 with data unchanged from 1807. The designation of her trade as "Cork" may have signaled that she had become a government transport. A listing of ships owned by Bennett indicates that the company only owned Caldeonia for the period 1800 to 1806 when she was engaged in whaling.
