In 1817 The ship Alceste brought Lord Amherst to China to serve as ambassador and to help assuage the differences of opinion that had developed between China and Great Britain pertaining to the China trade. During the course of its voyage the ship was wrecked on a hitherto uncharted reef in the vicinity of Borneo but crew and passengers were eventually rescued.
