The Princess Wilhelmina was a sailing boat which met a tragic end when it was wrecked in St Andrews Bay in 1912.  The boat left Finland in September bound for Dundee carrying a cargo of wood. As it tried to enter St Andrews Bay during a storm, it drifted helplessly onto the rocks and was wrecked. This logbook, written by Captain Heedendorp, records voyages to the South Atlantic, the Gulf of Arabia and the Indian Ocean.
