You may have to refine your question. Google brings up a lot of ships with this name.

The main business for M/S Patriot was herring, and M/S Patriot was among the biggest in the business.
On the return-trip, the ship brought goods such as flour, canvas, barrel bands, coffee, butter, wine, rice and fabrics.
Contact Skudenes Sjømannsforening for a copy of the original picture.

Lars Riisdahl and Daniel Jakobsen, who had the schooner Patriot built, were often partners in ownership with others from Skudeneshavn. For one example, in 1864 Salve Hage, Lars Riisdahl, David Torresen, Hans Olsen, Fredrick Lundin and Daniel Jakobsen became the owners of the barque (bark) "Dei Gratia", built 1849 in Rotterdam. Endre Berg was registered as the captain of that ship in 1865 and Jakob Andersen (son-in-law of Salve Hage) was the captain in 1867.
The "Dei Gratia" is the only ship from Skudeneshavn that is known to have sailed with emigrants -- and then only once. She left Bergen on 14 May 1866 with a crew of 17 and with 295 passengers. Endre Berg was the captain for that particular voyage. The ship sailed to Quebec and arrived on 17 June after 34 days of sailing. The "Dei Gratia" was owned by people in Skudenshavn until 1870, the same year that Salve Hage died.
Most of the barque (bark) ships from Skudeneshavn sailed to and from South-America, but also sailed with fruit in the Mediterranean.
The Skudeneshavn sloops were normally sailing along the coast with herrings to the Baltic Sea, especially Riga. They often came back with grain or timber.
