The square-sailed windjammer Herzogin Cecilie grounded en route to discharge its wheat at Ipswich on 25 April 1936 at Ham Stone Rock near Salcombe in South Devon having won the Port Lincoln in Australia to Falmouth in Cornwall Great Grain Race in eighty-six days. Launched in 1902 as a cadet ship, the Herzogin or Duchess Cecilie was named after Prussia's Crown Prince Wilhelm's spouse Cecilie of Mecklenburg-Schwerin. In 1921 the ship was sold to the Finnish Shipping tycoon Gustaf Eriksson of Mariehamn.
