Agincourt was launched in 1841. She spent most of her career sailing between Britain and the Far East. She foundered in 1866 on a voyage from Southampton to Hong Kong.
Agincourt first appeared in Lloyd's Register in 1841 with Walker, master, and Green, owner.[3] The 1842 volume gave her trade as London–Calcutta.
On 8 May 1846, while on a voyage from Calcutta to London, William Rathbone caught fire at 32°N 36°W / 32°N 36°W / 32; -36 in the Atlantic Ocean. She sank the next day. Agincourt, Nesbitt, master, rescued her crew.[4]
