1812: Endeavor, this British sailing sloop wrecked in St. Helena Bay in the Western Cape.
1867: Balaklava, this wooden barque struck Roman Rock and sank shortly thereafter in Algoa Bay in the Eastern Cape. The crew tried to get it to safety and a tug carrying a special pump from the fire brigade was on its way when it suddenly started sinking. The tug managed to rescue all on board.
1885: Lizzie, this steam-powered British mail tender wrecked on the west bank of the Buffalo River, near the breakwater in East London in the Eastern Cape.
