Sleek Jimmy and the Ocean Queen Robbery of Gold

A boarding passenger list in 1881 mentions James Melwill tauntingly dubbed Jimmy as the Ocean Queen sails from Melbourne to London. A swashbuckling crew seizes the ship at sea, taking the entire gold cargo and surrendering the crew after a swift, brutal hijacking. The thief gifts a portion of the loot before escaping aboard the brig, with a pursuit lasting years but ending without capture.
