SS Sangola

The Sangola was a 5,149 ton steam ship built for the British India Steam Navigation Company by William Denny & Brothers of Dumbarton in 1901. She had one funnel, two masts, a single screw and a speed of 10.5 knots. There was accommodation for 6 first class passengers and she carried a crew of 94. She was named after a region in western India and launched on 18 June 1901.

From 1908 to 1910 the Sangola made six voyages to Fiji bringing Indian indentured labourers from Calcutta and Madras as shown in the table below.

In September 1914 she carried troops between India and Marseilles and was sold to Japanese owners in June 1923. Renamed "Goshu Maru", she served her Japanese owners until 1933, when she was [http://www.theshipslist.com/ships/descriptions/ShipsS.html scrapped] in Japan.
