Remembering Great Lakes schooner days on Lake Ontario
Maritime historian Richard Palmer chronicles Great Lakes sailing schooners of Lake Ontario, their role in 19th century commerce, design limits, port runs to Oswego and Sodus Point, crew life, wrecks, and the transition from sail to steam. The piece notes high lumber trade, shoal drafts, and perilous storms shaping the twilight of the schooner era.
