Labrador Schooner

A Newfoundland migratory fishing vessel (30-200) tons prosecuting the Labrador coastal cod-fishery during the summer. It had a foremast and mainmast (including topmast) that carried a mainsail, foresail, jib and jumbo, with sometimes a gaff-topsail. The one shown is drawn from a 1935 photograph of the Eva Cross owned by Skipper Billy Hoff, Change Islands.
