Two hundred prisoners were embarked on the convict ship Emma Eugenia from the Hulks at Portsmouth in October 1837. Most were Englishmen from various parts of the country. The vessel departed London on 6th November 1837 and arrived in Port Jackson on Friday 9th February 1838, a voyage of 95 days. The surgeon reported that the passage through the tropics was favourable. Scurvy appeared by January, however according to the surgeon the disease was checked with lemon juice and sugar. Nitre in vinegar was tried also but found not as effective as lemon juice.
