Bombay: Printed at the Courier Press by Shreecrustna Jagonathjee Prabhoo for the Honourable East India Company 1824. Regulating the "Bombay Buccaneers" the gendarmerie of the Gulf First and sole edition of the earliest maritime regulations printed in India detailing the day-to-day governance of the Bombay Marine the East India Company's navy. Rare with only two institutional locations recorded. Founded in 1612 and based successively at Surat and Bombay the Marine became a principal instrument of British expansion from the Red Sea to Southeast Asia supporting major campaigns against the Marathas the Mysore and Burmese states and - most prominently - the Wahabi Qasimi confederation in the Gulf. Its squadron played a decisive role in the 1809 and 1819 operations culminating in the General Treaty of Peace earning high praise from naval commanders and Governor Mountstuart Elphinstone. The Marine was equally important as a surveying body. These regulations illuminate the rigorous expectations placed on officers such as Blair McCluer Ross and Brucks whose coastal surveys from the Gulf to the China Seas underpinned British navigation for decades. The text formalizes command responsibilities shipboard discipline victualling and punishments and mandates systematic hydrographic surveying accompanied by 17 templates for logs and accounts. Issued under Henry Meriton superintendent and commander of the Gulf Squadron they reflect the Marine's transition into a permanently deployed regional force at a pivotal moment in Company rule.
