Navigation Co. / Great Ship Company The company was formed with
a single ship which was launched in 1858. After a succession of
delays and mishaps, her maiden voyage to New York was made in
June 1860 and the passage was made in 11.5days. The ship
incurred substantial financial losses and was sold to Daniel
Gooch in 1864, the Great Ship Company having gone into
liquidation the previous year. Many thanks to Ted Finch for his
