- Britannia was launched in 1774 at Bombay. She was the focus of a protest against the Tea Act in Charleston, South Carolina in 1774. In 1796 she transported convicts from Ireland to Australia. This voyage was noteworthy for her captain's cruelty, for which he was tried but not sanctioned. She then sailed to China to pick up a cargo for the East India Company. On the way she visited or saw four islands in the present-day Marshall Islands. She remained employed in the services of the East India Company (EIC) until 1799. She then traded with India for a number of years, twice taking cargoes back to England for the EIC. Between 1808 and 1809 she was a whaler in the South Seas Fishery. (en)

*During the period 1790-1800, or so, six vessels named Britannia engaged in whaling in the South Seas, with several visiting Australia, either with convicts, or without. Separating them out is a non-trivial task as records appear to conflate them. (en)
