Despatch. (Dispatch). Wooden barque, 362 tons. Built Portsmouth, Great Britain, 1812; reg. London. Captain Pritchard. From Sydney to London with wool, abandoned after catching fire when about 150 miles from Lord Howe Island, 8 March 1839. One boat was picked up by the whaler Governor Burke and taken on to Sydney, while a search commenced for a second boat containing 21 seamen. They were picked up by the whaler Woodlark; apparently they reached Lord Howe Island, then set out for the mainland, but were never seen again.

John & Jane. Schooner, 30 tons. # 48412. Built at Williamstown, Victoria, 1863; reg. Melbourne 57/1863, 3/1871. Lbd 56.1 x 15.4 x 6.2 ft. On 28 February 1883, sailed from Melbourne for Cape Barren Island, Furneaux Group, eastern Bass Strait, where she was to pick up tin ore samples, but failed to arrive. She was last seen off Cape Schanck, Victoria, on 16 April. A boat was found on Badger Island that was believed, although not confirmed, to have come from the missing schooner, which was thought to have been wrecked when nearing her destination. At the time the Victorian Government steamer Despatch was searching Bass Strait for traces of either the John & Jane or Sea Nymph, but found no trace of either. [TS1] furneaux

Result. Barque, 724 tons. # 66553. Built at Medford, USA, 1852 as the full-rigged ship Polar Star, but was renamed on registration as a British ship in 1873; when lost was registered at Melbourne 19/1878, in the name of Huddart, Parker & Co. Lbd 146.6 x 30.2 x 22.8 ft. Captain McMaster. On 26 September 1880, sailed from Newcastle for Melbourne with 1100 tons of coal, and full complement of fourteen, plus the master’s wife and chiild, but last seen at the eastern entrance to Bass Strait by the barque Sydney Griffiths on 4 October 1880. HMCS Victoria left Melbourne to search the Victorian coast and the Bass Strait Islands for any trace of the missing ship, without success. In 1972 abalone divers discovered a wreck off Point Hicks, Victoria which was speculated to be the Result, but this was never confirmed and she could just as easily have come to grief anywhere in eastern Bass Strait. kentt

Sea Nymph. Brig, 289 tons. # 50399. Built at Shoreham, UK, 1865; reg. Sydney 101/1882. Lbd 119.0 x 26.5 x 14.9 ft. Captain John Moreton. Sailed from Maryborough, Queensland for Melbourne on 10 February 1883 with a cargo of cedar but failed to arrive. In April the Victorian Government steamer Despatch was sent out in search of the Sea Nymph and the schooner John & Jane, missing on a voyage from Melbourne to Cape Barren Island, but found no trace of either. It does, however, appear possible that she capsized west of the Furneaux Group and her upturned hull was mistaken for the Louisa, (qv), missing late the previous year. On 27 April 1883 the lower mast of a large sailing vessel was reported off Eddystone Point from the Allenshaw, and may also have been a relic from either the Louisa or Sea Nymph.[TS1]   kent
