This artists impression of the Waratah overtaking the Clan Macintyre on the morning of the 27th of July 1909 is indeed a very impressive painting. There is how ever a glaring mistake and that is, the Clan line ship is in fact the Clan Macintyre 1, a turret class ship the same as the Clan Ranald which capsized in South Australia off Kangaroo island in 1909. The above ship was built in 1891 and later sold in 1902 and there fore could not be the Clan Macintyre which was overhauled by the Waratah in 1909. When the Clan Macintyre 1 ship was sold she was renamed the Bulgarian. On the 20th of January 1917 in the western approaches to Ireland she was torpedoed and sunk by the U.84 with the loss of 14 lives.
