Bengalee was a three-masted merchant barque built in 1837 at Dumbarton, Scotland. She first appeared in Lloyd's Register in 1838 with Hamlin, master, Hamlin and Company, of Greenock, owners, and trade Clyde–Calcutta.[2] Captain Thomas Hamlin did not allow the consumption of alcohol on his ship, thus it was known as a |temperance ship.

Although primarily carrying supplies, she also carried 27 passengers, among whom were a group of the first Prussian settlers to Australia. From Port Adelaide she sailed on 29 February 1839 to Batavia.
