Paint Supply
Paints were a very precious quantity in the good old days, and British
merchants could make a small fortune supplying paints to the colonies.
One company sent a clipper ship full of red paint across the ocean. It
had the very bad luck to collide with another ship full of blue paint.
As a result of this disaster, both crews were ... marooned.
