Title A name given to the resource Bessemer City, wrecked of Clodgy in October 31st 1936. Description An account of the resource The American steamer Bessemer City wrecked at Clodgy in 1936, was launched in 1921 by the Chickasaw Shipbuilding Company of Alabama for the US Steel Production Company. She was steel screw steamer of 3,450 tons net, 5,686 tons gross, powered by two steam turbines, geared to a single shaft, made the Federal Shipbuilding Company of Kearney, New Jersey. Under the ownership of the Isthmian SS Co of New York, and commanded by Captain Joseph Herman, the Bessemer City left Liverpool on the evening of October 31st 1936 for London, to complete discharging her general cargo from the USA. Twenty-four hours later she passed Godrevy light which was almost hidden by thick wintry haze, and shortly before midnight grounded heavily under Pen Enys Point. In the weeks following, the Bessemer City broke up. Her poor complete with mast and cargo derricks, drifted under Trevalgan Cliff, and heavy seas demolished even the large forward and midship sections. Cases of tinned fruit and salmon, boxes of raisins, sultanas and other delicacies ripened in the California sunshine, came ashore from Clodgy to Newquay. A Penzance firm recovered a lot, but a great deal more vanished into kitchen cupboards and was put to good used during the days of scarcity that followed. Though her location was well known; the Bessemer City lay undisturbed until September 1963, when she was re-discovered by crayfish divers.

Title A name given to the resource Wreck of Tay Craig off Gear Rock, January 27th 1936. Description An account of the resource Wreck of Tay Craig Nine sailors were saved on a stormy day when a steamer floundered on rocks just off Penzance. It was exactly 87 years ago, in the early hours of the morning that the Taycraig, a Cornish owned but London registered steamer came a cropper when it struck Gear Rocks just off Penzance Promenade. In a strong gale of wind which sprang up suddenly, and a blinding rainstorm, the steamer was driven up on to the rocks. The steamer wrapped herself around the tall post and cage beacon of gear Rocks while en route to Newlyn to take on roadstone. Her crew were burning mattresses to attract attention. The lifeboats search lights showed that they were wearing life jackets and seeking shelter in the fire house at the forecastle head. They did manage to attract attention and the Penlee Lifeboat was launched to come to their aid. However the weather was reportedly so foul on that dreadful in January 1936, that it took the Penlee crew - who did not have the modern equipment of today - half an hour to reach the ship only over a mile away from Penlee lifeboat station. Other report said the storm was so ferocious that day that bits of the broken up ship were flung over onto the Prom. Yet the lifeboat crew did manage to reach the steamer and managed to save all nine sailors on board including one who had reportedly jumped overboard but was quickly picked up. The Tacraig eventually sank until her funnel and masts stood out of the water and could not be salvaged. A spokeswoman for Penlee Lifeboat station said: "Another January day and another meritorious rescue from our archives. Some 87 years ago today, during the early hours of 27 January 1936, the new W and S lifeboat launched from Penlee Point, Mousehole and went to the assistance of the steamer ‘Taycraig’ which had struck Gear Rocks just off Penzance Promenade.
