He went ashore at Shanghai, where he established a business making steam - donkey - engines for dockside cranes, installing steam engines in ships, providing maintenance services to ship owners, and eventually building ships. This went so well, he expanded to Hong Kong, where the business also flourished. Apparently, he operated the first floating dry dock in the Orient, and otherwise left his mark on Hong Kong to this day: Fenwick Street and Fenwick Harbour, the latter used as a base by the US Navy post World War II. The cabinet was brought back to Scotland around 1896.Thence by family descent.
