Harry J. Peters says of the Apollo Store Ship: It "was sent around the Horn from New York in 1849 to San Francisco. There it was beached & converted to a store & warehouse. This was often the fate of many ships in those days when whole crews would often desert ship & rush to the gold fields. It was also profitable to the owners to beach a vessel & turn it to just such uses as the Apollo, for San Francisco was largely a city of tents with few buildings either for homes or storage for the thousands of newcomers."
