Argo (1800)

Argo was an American schooner that was wrecked in Fiji during January 1800. She was owned by Robert Berry. Argo's sailing career was not a smooth one. A contemporary account of its 1798 arrival in Port Jackson (Sydney, Australia) said: In January 1800, Argo was on her way from China to Sydney when she was wrecked on Argo Reef, south-east of Fiji. Her crew reached Tongatapu where all but two were killed by natives. In 1802 the two survivors were rescued.
