The 'Carmanian' at Hobart
The steel barque 'Carmanian', 1840 tons, at Hobart, Tasmania. The first Master of the 'Carmanian 'was Captain W.F. Bunn, who originated from Gt. Yarmouth, Norfolk, UK.

The following information is taken from the ship's entry at the Through Mighty Seas website : The 'Carmanian' was a steel ship built by R.Williamson & Son at Workington, UK, launched on Monday, 19th April 1897. She was operated by her builders until 1903, when she was sold to E.F.& W.Roberts, also of Workington. In 1910 the 'Carmanian' was sold to Norwegian owners and was registered at Stavanger, retaining her name. The 'Carmanian' was lost during the First World War, on passage from Buenos Aires (departed 18th February, 1916) to Queenstown with a wheat cargo. The barque was sunk by gunfire from a German submarine U19, 55 miles off the West coast of Ireland on Tuesday, 25th April 1916. The crew abandoned ship in two boats, one of which capsized, drowning all aboard.
