Meermin (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈmeːrmɪn]) was an 18th-century Dutch cargo ship of the type, one of many built and owned by the Dutch East India Company. She was laid down in 1759 and fitted out as a slave ship before her maiden voyage in 1761, and her career was cut short by a mutiny of her cargo of Malagasy people. They had been sold to Dutch East India Company officials on Madagascar, to be used as company slaves in its Cape Colony in southern Africa. Half her crew and almost 30 Malagasy lost their lives in the mutiny; the mutineers deliberately allowed the ship to drift aground off Struisbaai, now in South Africa, in March 1766, and she broke up in situ. As of 2013, archaeologists are searching for the Meermin's remains.

  • Le Meermin (« sirène » en français) est un navire négrier de la Compagnie néerlandaise des Indes orientales (Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, ou VOC) construit à Amsterdam sur un chantier naval de la Compagnie et lancé en 1760. Le 18 février 1766, les esclaves qu'il transporte de Madagascar au Cap se révoltent et prennent possession du navire. Les faits sont connus et bien documentés grâce aux minutes (conservées aux archives du Cap) du procès qui a lieu par la suite. (fr)
