White Wings Vol I. Fifty Years Of Sail In The New Zealand Trade, 1850 TO 1900

[section]

Under charter to the New Zealand Shipping Co., a number of the smart ships of the famous Loch Line, owned by Messrs. D. and J. Sproat, of Liverpool, visited New Zealand ports, bringing immigrants and general cargo. The Loch ships were all well found, and for their size made the runs out and Home in less time than several ships of larger tonnage. The Loch ships chartered by the New Zealand Shipping Co. were the Loch Fleet, the Loch Urr, the Loch Dee, the Loch Fergus, the Loch Doon, the Loch Ken, the Loch Cree, and the Loch Trool.
