'''''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.<ref name=LR1838>[https://hdl.handle.net/2027/mdp.39015065537980?urlappend=%3Bseq=58 ''LR'' (1838), Seq.№134.]</ref> Captain Thomas Hamlin did not allow the consumption of alcohol on his ship, thus it was known as a |temperance ship.
