My G.Grandfather JWR Hammond was the Chief Officer on Ariel on the "Great Race" with Taeping and (possibly) Captained Thermopylae later in his, and its, career but that part is unconfirmed as yet. This doesn't help in your quest for fellow Scots I'm afraid as he was from Bishops Stortford in Herts but hope it might help fill in a gap. Only just started to flesh out his story but let me know if you'd be interested in any other details I come up with later.
Best Wishes
