Cumberland
Colonial-built schooner, 29 tons. Turned over to Flinders for his journey back to England after his wrecking on Wreck Reef in the 'Cato'. Remained in Ile de France when Flinders was finally released. Despite many requests for its return or for compensation, the ship was never returned to Flinders, England or Australia. (In his 1809 tribute to Trim (FLI/11) Flinders refers to the 'Cumberland' by the name 'Minikin'.)
