SUMMARY:SV Mindora (1864)
DESCRIPTION:The Mindora was a British three-masted barque\, reportedly constructed in August 1864 and measuring about 41.5 metres long. She was a newly built sailing vessel\, bound outward from London to Victoria\, British Columbia\, carrying passengers and what contemporary reports describe as a valuable general cargo. That phrase does a lot of heavy lifting\, as Victorian shipping reports often preferred suspense over inventory\, presumably to torment future wreck researchers for sport. Local dive accounts place the wreck in the 30 to 32 metre range off Dover. \nHer career was brutally short. On 28 November 1864\, Mindora collided in the English Channel with the Khersonese\, another outward-bound sailing ship\, reportedly on passage from London to Calcutta. Contemporary shipwreck listings place the collision about 8 nautical miles south-west by west of South Foreland\, with Mindora sinking and the other vessel abandoned in a sinking condition. For divers\, this is a proper Victorian mystery wreck: a young barque lost almost as soon as her story began\, a collision in one of the world’s busiest sea lanes\, and a seabed site that still gives up small clues from a long-vanished age of sail.

SUMMARY:HMT Étoile Polaire (1915)
DESCRIPTION:HMT Étoile Polaire was a steel-hulled Admiralty trawler built in 1915 by J. T. Eltringham & Co.\, at Willington Quay. She was a small but purposeful vessel of 278 tons\, originally built for Rémy & Huret of Boulogne\, although her exact owner at the time of loss seems a little uncertain. Hired into Admiralty service in 1915\, she joined the Dover Patrol’s dangerous minesweeping and patrol work around the Goodwins\, where small trawlers were asked to do large and lethal jobs. Admiralty optimism really was something to behold. \nOn 3 December 1915\, Étoile Polaire struck a mine and sank off the South Goodwins. The minefield is recorded as having been laid by the German minelaying submarine UC-1\, commanded by Kapitänleutnant Egon von Werner. Her wreck has had a confusing afterlife: Canterbury Divers and Historic England both note that a site once listed as HMT Cayton Wyke was positively identified as Étoile Polaire when her bell was recovered. The wreck lies in about 27 metres\, stands up to 5 metres proud\, and is described as fairly intact\, with a blown-off bow\, open holds\, intact stern and surviving superstructure. For divers\, this is a cracking Dover Patrol wreck: compact\, atmospheric\, strongly identified\, and close enough to the Goodwins to add that little pinch of “this place has been eating ships for centuries”.
