High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Meermin was an 18th-century Dutch cargo ship of the "hoeker" type, one of many built and owned by the Dutch East India Company. Laid down in 1759 and fitted out as a slave ship before her maiden voyage in 1761, her career was cut short by a mutiny of her cargo of Malagasy people. They had been sold to Dutch East India Company officials on Madagascar, to be used as company slaves in its Cape Colony in southern Africa. Half her crew and almost 30 Malagasy lost their lives in the mutiny; the ship was deliberately allowed to drift aground by the mutineers off Struisbaai, now in South Africa, in March 1766, and broke up in situ. As of 2012, archaeologists are searching for the Meermin's remains.
