'''''Borrowdale''''' was a three-masted, [[square rig]]ged merchant ship, launched in 1785, that served as a storeship of the [[First Fleet]], a convoy of ships taking settlers and convicts to establish the first European colony in Australia. She was wrecked in 1789.
==Career==
''Borrowdale'' was built in [[Sunderland, Tyne and Wear|Sunderland]] in 1785, perhaps for the British [[East India Company]] (EIC). However, the British government immediately chartered her to participate in the First Fleet.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/37454867 |title=Storeship ''Borrowdale'' |work=[[National Library of Australia]] |year=2012 |accessdate=20 June 2012}}</ref>
She left [[Portsmouth]] on 13 May 1787, and arrived at [[Port Jackson]], [[Sydney, Australia]] on 20 January 1788.<ref name="fellowshipfirstfleeters"/>
She left Port Jackson on 14 July 1788 to return to [[England]] via [[Cape Horn]]. The crew was so badly affected by [[scurvy]] that the [[master Mariner|master]], (Readthorn) Hobson Reed, took her to [[Rio de Janeiro]], where the harbour master and his men had to bring the ship to its berth. Five of the crew died on the homeward voyage.<ref name="firstfleetfellowship">{{cite web |url= http://firstfleetfellowship.org.au/ships/hms-borrowdale/ |title=Borrowdale |work=First Fleet Fellowship Victoria Inc |year=2012 |accessdate=20 June 2012}}</ref> ''Borrowdale'' arrived at Plymouth from Botany Bay on 25 March 1789.<ref>[http://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015065522511;view=1up;seq=60 ''Lloyd's List'', n° 2076.]</ref>
==Fate==
After returning to England ''Borrowdale'' served as a [[Collier (ship)|collier]]. A violent storm developed of the coast of [[Norfolk]] on 30 October 1789 that damaged many vessels, and sank some. On 31 October 1789 ''Borrowdale'' sank off [[Great Yarmouth]], taking Reed and all but one man of his crew with her.<ref>[http://hdl.handle.net/2027/mdp.39015008145776?urlappend=%3Bseq=185 ''Lloyd's List'', n° 2139.]</ref>
