Tempest (ship)
''Tempest'' was the first ship of the Anchor Line belonging to Scottish brothers Nicol and Robert Handyside and Captain Thomas Henderson.〔 The , 866-ton ship was built as a sail-ship by Sandeman & McLaurin of Glasgow and launched on 21 December 1854. On 3 April 1855 Henderson began a maiden voyage from Glasgow to Bombay.
The Anchor Line decided to begin transatlantic service between Glasgow and New York with ''Tempest''. She was converted to a screw steamship with the fitting, by Randolf and Elder, of engines in 1856. Her first passage left Glasgow on 11 October 1856; sailing from New York on 19 November, she returned to Glasgow after a 28-day crossing.
Her second journey departed Glasgow 27 December, mastered by Capt James Morris, with cargo and 50 passengers. She arrived in New York on 1 February. She sailed eastward on 13 February 1857 with crew, cargo and one passenger aboard.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=Norway Heritage ) Nb. Some sources claim 150 passengers.〕 She vanished without a trace.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=The Ships List )〕 Her fate remains an unsolved mystery to this day.
Two other ships of the Anchor Line disappeared at sea; ''United Kingdom'' in 1869 and ''Ismailia'' in 1873.
