Framed Print of The Sin Nanzing, new China clipper, 1870. Creator: Unknown
The Sin Nanzing, new China clipper, 1870. The first British merchant-vessel that has made the voyage to India by passing through the Suez Canal is the new paddle steam-ship Sin Nanzing...[She] left Greenock on Nov. 11, stopped three days at Gibraltar for coal, and...was off Port Said on the 29th...on Dec. 1...[she] went into the Canal...and arrived at Suez on Dec. 3...[She left the same day] and reached Bombay in twelve days ten hours. The whole voyage from Greenock to Bombay thus occupied thirty-six days. In the opinion of Captain James Blow, marine superintendent of the North China Steam-Ship Company, who was on board the Sin Nanzing, steam-vessels can be made to convey troops from England to India, by the Suez Canal, in twenty-one days. He states...that he would undertake to carry out 600 soldiers on board the Sin Nanzing in twenty-five days, instead of seventy-five, the average time of their voyage round the Cape during the Indian mutiny; and that the cost would be only half as much...[He] invites the British and Indian taxpayers to consider whether we still want to keep so large a European army stationed in India...the Sin Nanzing...was built and her engines were made by Mr. John Elder, of Glasgow, for Messrs. Trautmann and Co.'. From Illustrated London News, 1870. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
