New York Times Says the Big Coasters
Must Go.
The New York Times of yesterday has
an article on the rise and fall Of the
four-masted schooners. The article
states that when four masted schooners
were first introduced few years ago they
were thought to be great success and
paid their owners splendid dividends
Experience has not indicated the good
opinion concerning the craft, however,
and the Times article says the large
schooner must 60.
When the builders had launched the
first few vessels. and they were thought
to be success, vessel owners and build
ers thought that they had at last found
what they were looking for. In the
large schooner they had a vessel with the
carrying capacity Of the largest ship and
requiring a little more than one.third
the number of men. The vessels had to
be built of comparatively light draft
which interfered with their sea-going
qualities. The large number of tall
masts was also great objection.
Schooners with a capacity of from GOO
to 700 tons pay the best and the tendency
is in their direction to day.
