Harriet (fishing Smack)

Harriet (1829 Ship)
''Harriet'' was a former vessel of the British Royal Navy, probably the . The Navy sold her in 1829 and her new owners deployed her as a whaler in the British Southern Whale Fishery. She made three complete whaling voyages and was wrecked in July 1837 during her fourth. Origins ''LR'' gave ''Harriet''s origin as "Kgs Yd", signalling that she had been built for the Navy. The ''Register of Shipping'' (''RS'') identified where she was built as Ipswich. Both registers gave her launch year as 1813. There were three vessels built for the Navy in Ipswich in 1813 that were sold in 1828 or 1829 and of a burthen similar to ''Harriet''s. All three were ''Cruizer''-class brig sloops of about 386 tons (bm): , , and . ''Fly'' was sold in Bombay in 1828, and ''Harlequin'' was sold in Jamaica in September 1829. ''Fly''s purchaser could have sailed her to Britain for resale, with the result that although ''Harriet'' is most probably the former ''Harrier'', the link cannot be verified definitiv ...
