Old Maine ships and the 1877 naval sketch
In 1877 Maine launched many full rigged ships and brigs now scattered or wrecked. The Llewellyn J Morse, built at Brewer in 1877, sails to Alaska canneries for salmon packing and often carries Chinese workers and cargo northward. Several Bath and Maine vessels, plus vessels built in Massachusetts, still operate in the Pacific trading salmon, while old Yankee ships fade from the coast.
