  • T.S. Indefatigable1901 T.S. Indefatigable 1930
    In 1864 John Clint, a Liverpool ship-owner, founded a charitable institution to train the sons of sailors, destitute and orphaned boys to become merchant seamen. T.S. Indefatigable1901 The first TS Indefatigable was loaned by the Admiralty and was one of the last of the Navy’s sailing frigates. Mr. James Bibby contributed £5,000 to transform her from a fighting ship to a training ship and this was to be the start of a long association between the Bibby family and the School. The TS Indefatigable merged with the Lancashire and National Sea Training Homes in 1945 and records relating to both institutions are held in the Maritime Archives & Library. T.S. Indefatigable 1930 „Indefatigable‟ was founded in 1864 by John Clift and a handful of philanthropic ship owners as a training establishment which aimed to prepare boys for a life in the Merchant Navy. It was initially for „the sons and orphans of seamen who are without means, preferably sailors connected with Liverpool‟. The school was established aboard the INDEFATIGABLE, a 50-gun frigate (the 3rd ship to bear her name) which was loaned by the Admiralty, and fitted out for £5000 at the expense of James J Bibby Esq. The first boys were admitted in August 1865. She could accommodate up to 200, in addition to the staff. „Inde‟ boys were almost exclusively supported by local public subscription; though some of the better off did pay the modest fees of those days. In 1912 the ship was condemned as unfit by the Inspector of Training Ships „though the bilges are sweet‟.
