Summary details of famous Clipper Ships (those without a separate Wikipedia Article)

• Ariel, 1865, 197.4ft x 33.9ft x 21ft, designed by William Rennie, built by Robert Steel & Co, Greenock for Shaw, Lowther & Maxton of London. In late 1872 she left London bound for Syndney and was not heard of again.
• Blackadder, 1870, (sister ship to Hallowe'en), built by Maudsley, Sons & Field at Greenwich for John Willis. Dismasted on her maiden voyage due to failures in mast fittings and rigging. John Willis took legal action against the builders which dragged on such an extent that her sister ship Hallowe'en was not handed over to Willis until nearly 18 months after her launch. After John Willis died in 1900, Blackadder was bought by J Aalborg of Kragero in Norway. On 5 November 1905 she was wrecked whilst on passage from Barry to Bahia loaded with coal.
• Hallowe’en, 1870 (sister ship to Blackadder), 920 tons, 216.6ft x 35.2ft x 20.5ft, built by Maudsley, Sons & Field at Greenwich for John Willis. Due to faults in her sister ship Blackadder, which caused dismasting on her maiden voyage, Hallowe’en was not handed over to Willis for nearly 18 months after her launch due to protracted legal action. Hallowe’en was fast in light airs and recorded many fast passages from China. In 1887 she was on passage from Foochow loaded with tea and was wrecked off Salcombe.
