Hello Marty,

Have collected considerable Cuban source material regarding supply trips to Cuba from the USA.
No Mascot listed as being authorized by Cuban Revolutionary groups in any USA city.

All 147 expeditions between 1895-1898 funded by these groups are indicated. No Mascot.

Fayler in the Seaborne Trade history indicates some 50 German vessels were seized.
Does anyone know where a list of said vessels may be found?

Where they sent off to England before the Antwerp waterways were occupied by Germany?

Found info. Aviso de 2e classe du type ENGAGEANTE. built 1917, discarded 1945.

After additional research it is probably the Narvik found capsized off the Ems on Dec. 15.
30 dead
cargo of coal dust is believed to have shifted in a heavy gale.
3576 tons.

Any information on this event? Vessel capsized and there were casualties. Apparently tugs salvaged the ship.

Hello Marty,

Pardon the expectations aroused in my earlier post, I was initially excited at finding the link and then muted seeing the critical years are missing.

Do love the NY Journal story regarding the Mascot.

PM sent.

So that would be the vessel. The eyewitne...

Hello everyone, Is there a list of German vessels involved in evacuating troops from Riga in December 1918? The last vessel may have departed on January 1, 1919. I see the steamer "Roma" was at Libau on January 2-3 1919. not sure if earlier at Riga as well. Was there a German ship named &q...

Understood and thank you

For example Russian source indicates: In November 1914, Admiral Ebergardt led a sweep of the coast sinking several steamers and dozens of sailing ships. I presume the steamers would be registered and the sailing vessels am not sure. Russians kept detailed records of how many vessels they destroyed o...

To include small craft destroyed in the many Russian sweeps of the Turkish coast.
Any, all leads appreciated.

Hello Marty, Came across this narrative which lists captures. http://www.armada.mde.es/archivo/mardigitalrevistas/cuadernosihcn/30cuaderno/cuaderno30.pdf Nothing is shown for the months in question. It is detailed. You know U.S. State Dept reports from the Embassy/Consulate in Havana might have info.
