ARMIN A CLIPPER SHIP  OF 1,300 TONS DATING FROM AROUND FROM 1857 

----------------------

 ARMIN A VESSEL OF 640 TONS AROUND 1859, BUT AS FAR AS I CAN TELL SHE WAS A COASTAL VESSEL CARRYING LIVESTOCK AND A FEW PASSENGERS AROUND THE COAST OF AUSTRALIA.

( I ASSUME THIS IS  THE SAME VESSEL AS THE BELOW ARMIN )

 ARMIN A GERMAN BARQUE BUILT IN NEW BRUNSWICK ( SHE WAS NOT LAUNCHED AS ARMIN ) IN 1858 AND OWNED BY F W WENCKE COMMANDED BY R ROSEENTHAL

SHE WAS WRECKED ON A VOYAGE FROM BRITISH COLOMBIA BOUND FOR CHINA CARRYING TIMBER AND WRECKED BETWEEN SOOKE AND PORT RENFREW ON 23RD AUGUST 1864

THE ALBION LINE DID INDEED  CHARTER A VESSEL CALLED ARMIN BUT I HAVE NOT MADE A CONNECTION BETWEEN THEIR CHARTERED SHIP AND ANY OF THE  ABOVE  VESSELS

IF I WERE TO MAKE A GUESS I WOULD SAY IT WAS EITHER THE ARMIN BUILT BY ALEXANDER STEPHEN & SONS  OR THE NEW BRUNSWICH BUILT VESSEL - I STRESS THAT WOULD ONLY BE A GUESS - AND 'ARMIN' MAY NOT HAVE BEEN THE NAME THE VESSEL WAS LAUNCHED UNDER WHICH MAKES IT MORE DIFFICULT
