Hind
Hind worked in the Cook Strait region during the 1830 whaling season. In August 1829, she departed from Sydney for the South Sea Islands on a speculative voyage. She arrived back in Sydney in December having come from Tonga. A month later Hind, Captain Jack, left Sydney for New Zealand and while there secured 60 tons of pork and flax.
In March, Hind was purchased by the whaling company R Campbell and Co, and was fitted out for work in the black whale fishery. By early May she was ready to go, and Captain Scott sailed her for Cook Strait where she commenced bay whaling. At the end of August she was almost full but didn’t arrive back in Sydney with her cargo of oil and whalebone until 13 November.
