I sailed in five of them –

The smallest, Jolly Christine, between Bandama and Clan Stuart, was only 125 feet long, but puffers were even smaller, often about 90 feet long. The ones I sailed in were Rhodesia Star, Wandsworth, Sagamore, Richmond Castle and Bandama in that order. The most comfortable was the 1977 Bandama where we had the added luxury of air conditioning and bathrooms in our cabins. Rhodesia Star and Wandsworth did not even have wash basins in the cabins. But my favorites were Sagamore and Richmond Castle.

It is a different Clan Stuart! The one you mention was a turret ship, built much earlier, as per your link. My drawing is of the 1916 version that was sunk in a collision in 1940.

I have seen the Clan Stuart wreck off Simonstown, but she was completed in 1900 and was one of those peculiar-looking turret ships. Here more details: **LINK**
