Hi Peter,

The "Sangola" was one of a class of seven mainly cargo ships built for
British India Steam Navigation Co. Built by Wm Denny & Bros, Dumbarton in
1901, she was a 5,149 gross ton ship, length 410.8ft x beam 50.7ft x depth
32ft (125,21m x 15,45m x 9,75m). She had one funnel, two masts, single screw
and a speed of 10.5 knots. There was accommodation for 6-1st class
passengers and she carried a crew of 94.
Launched on 18th June 1901, she was delivered to BISNCo on August 16th. In
September 1914 she trooped between India and Marseilles and was sold to
Japanese owners in June 1923. Renamed "Goshu Maru" by Fukuhara Kisen, Dairen
she served this company until 1933 when she was scrapped in Japan. [Merchant
Fleets, vol.11, British India S.N.Co, by Duncan Haws]

Sorry, but I don't have any info on the other ships you are looking for.

regards
Ted
