Cleopatra (1839)
''Cleopatra'' was Victorian era wooden paddle steam frigate〔name="forgottenbooks1"/>〕 of the East India Company.〔 Constructed at Northfleet, the ship arrived at Bombay (now Mumbai) on 19 April 1840, and operated as a transport and mail steamer between Bombay to Karachi, Aden and Suez.〔
==Loss at sea during cyclone==
Cleopatra foundered on 15 April 1847 during a cyclone off the Malabar Coast in the Indian Ocean whilst en route from Bombay to Singapore.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Wrecksite )〕 Nearly 300 people were killed - her entire crew of 151, 100 convicts she was carrying and their Royal Marine guard.
The ship was in poor condition prior to her loss, her captain Commander J. A. Young having complained that on the immediately prior voyage, from Aden to Bombay, the paddle boxes had to be secured with chains running across the deck.
