Swan was launched at Flensburg in 1806. By 1808 Samuel Enderby & Sons had acquired her. Between 1808 and 1810 she made one whaling voyage during which she rediscovered Bouvet Island. Enderby's sold her and from 1811 on she traded widely. Then in 1823 Enderbys repurchased her and she made two more whaling voyages for them. She then became a West Indiaman and was last listed in 1833.

Career

Whaling voyage #1 (1808–1810): Captain James Lindsay sailed from England on 10 June 1808.[1] Swan was in company with another Enderby whaler, {{ship||Otter|1807 ship|2}}, Thomas Hopper, master. Lloyd's List reported on 26 July 1808 that Otter, Hopper, master, and Swan, Lindsay, master, had been at Madeira on 27 June on their way to the South Seas.[2]

Swan rediscovered Bouvet Island on 4 October, with Otter arriving some three days later. They recorded the island's position but were unable to land because of the ice.{{sfn|Howgego|2004|p=204}}

Swan returned to Gravesend on 14 August 1810 from Ascension Island.[3]

Some sources report that Swan made two more whaling voyages, one in 1811 under Captain John Shuttleworth, and one in 1812 under Captain William Randall,{{sfn|Clayton|2014|p=227}}[1] but this is incorrect.

The Register of Shipping for 1811 showed Swan{{'}}s master changing from J. Lindsay to Shuttleworth, her ownership from Enderbys to "Capt.", and her trade from London–Southern Fishery to London "Gilota".[4]

Swan, Shuttleworth, master, arrived at Gravesend on 1 February 1811 from Gibraltar.[5] She was listed among the transports that sailed from Gravesend on 13 March, bound for Lisbon.[6] She was among the transports reported to have arrived at Lisbon between 23 March and 5 April. From Lisbon she sailed on to San Domingo via Madeira, where she arrived on 18 May. On 22 September she was at Portsmouth, and by 29 November she was back at Gravesend from Saint Domingo.[7] On 6 December Swan, Shuttleworth, master, sailed for Oporto; on 25 December she arrived back at Gravesend from Oporto. On 27 April 1812 Swan, Shuttleworth, master, was back at Gravesend from Oporto.

The Register of Shipping for 1813 showed Swan with W. Randall, master, W. Barnett, owner, and trade London–St Michael's Mount.[8] While sailing for Barnett Swan had various masters and sailed to such places as A Coruña, Fayal, Gothenburg, Malaga, Petersburg, Ribadeo, Rio de Janeiro, and Valencia.

Lloyd's Register for 1819 showed Swan with D.T. Lyon, master, Skelton, owner, and trade London–Havana.[9] The Register of Shipping gave the owner's name as Crosby.

The Register of Shipping and Lloyd's Register for 1824 both showed Swan with Enderbys. owner, and trade London–Southern Fishery. The Register of Shipping showed her master as Malcolm, and Lloyd's Register showed him as M'Lean.

Whaling voyage #2 (1823–1825): Captain McLean (or Richard McKean) sailed from England on 4 June 1823, bound for the Seychelles. Swan returned on 3 May 1825 with 200 casks of whale oil. She apparently was the first whaler to discover the whaling grounds off the Seychelles.[1]Whaling voyage #3 (1825–1827): Captain McKean of McLean sailed on 10 June 1825, bound for the Seychelles again. Swan returned on 10 January 1827 with 250 casks of whale oil.[1]Lloyd's Register for 1827 showed Swan{{'}}s master changing from M'Kean to R. Free, her owner from Enderbys to Gutteridge, and her trade from London–South Seas to London–Saint Thomas.[10] The Register of Shipping for 1828 showed her master as Free, her owner as King, and her trade as London–Barbados.[11]

Fate

Swan was last listed in the registers in 1833. Lloyd's Register showed her with R. Free, master, Gutteridge, owner, and trade London–Saint Thomas.[12] The Register of Shipping showed her with Free, master, King, owner, and trade London–Barbados.[13]
