Caroline was launched at Nursapore in 1827. Her early career as a country ship, trading east of the Cape of Good Hope, is currently obscure. From 1834 on she proceeded to make six voyages as a whaler in the southern whale fishery. She disappears from records available online in November 2023 after her return to Great Britain in 1859.

Caroline first appeared in Lloyd's Register in 1834.[1] She then became a whaler in the British Southern Whale Fishery.[2]
