Builder Napier and Miller | Fate Sank 1929 Launched 1921 | |
SS Hsin Wah, now also known as the SS Xinhua, was a steamship owned by China Merchants Steam Navigation Company, navigating between Canton City, Hong Kong, Shanghai. She was built in 1921 by Napier & Miller in Glasgow. The ship was once seized by pirates of Bias Bay in 1928 and saved by the SS Zhongshan (then written Chung Shan). She sunk in 1929 when grounded on northern rocks of Waglan, an island southeast of Hong Kong Island in Hong Kong, with a loss of between 300 and 400 lives.
