Yes I had to google it and then had a “huh, so that is what they are called” moment. Laurence Thomas Tulloch is my gg great grandfather on my maternal side. He arrived in Australia as crew on the City of Adelaide in 1882.

I learnt two things from this. I didn't know what a "ketch" was either.
Thank you.
