His firm survived almost half a century of change, owning steamships for a while, but later rejecting them. His ships, Clyde-built and traditionally rigged, sought cargoes in every quarter of the globe, experiencing storms, wrecks, trade depressions and the hazards of war. When the firm of J. Hardie & Co. ceased trading in 1923, three of their ships, the Hougomont, the Killoran and the Archibald Russell, which was named after Captain Hardie's close friend and partner, continued trading under the Finnish flag of Captain Gustaf Erikson.
