Welcome to the immigrant Good Ship Eugenie, an iron full rigged Frigate sailing ship built in 1865 for the Robert Miles Sloman Company of Hamburg, Germany. It was re-rigged into a Barque in 1888. Eugenie was sold to Norwegian owners at Sandefjord, Norway, in 1897 and ran aground off Stockholm in 1906. It was towed and sold, and may have survived until World War II, when it may have been destroyed by the British on a raid at Narvik, Norway. 

 

The site describes the early Hamburg history and immigrant sailings to New York City and Australia.  It then documents Eugenie's history under the Norwegian flag, from about 1897 to her grounding in 1906.  Two drawings of Eugenie from the Norwegian period are included.
