FOUR MASTED SCHOONER |
|
|
The
first four-masted schooner was a re-building in 1864 of the 344 ton barge Victoria in San Francisco. Steamer hulls seems to have made excellence sailing ships
and in 1879 the steamer Weybosset was converted into a four-masted schooner.
The following year the first four-masted schooner was built on the American
East Coast. During the years 1864 to 1904 130 four-masted schooners were
built on the American Pacific Coast. According to the late John Lyman around
130 four-masted schooners were built on the American East Coast alone during
the years 1917-1920. 1/48 SCALE 4-SHEETS
