Maister (or Maisters) was launched in 1802 at Hull. She initially sailed to the Baltic, but then became a government transport until the end of the Napoleonic Wars. She twice sailed to India under a licence from the British East India Company (EIC). In her career she suffered at least three maritime mishaps before she was wrecked on 13 December 1822.
Career
Maister first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR) in 1802.[2]

On 18 August 1802 Maister, Cowham, master, arrived at Petersburg from Hull. In November Lloyd's List reported that as she was coming from Petersburg she had gotten on shore at Carlsheim, on the coast of Sweden, but was expected to be gotten off.[3]

In 1813 the EIC had lost its monopoly on the trade between India and Britain. British ships were then free to sail to India or the Indian Ocean under a licence from the EIC.[7]
