Wooden Schooners

Wooden schooners are traditional sailing ships with two or more masts, typically carrying fore-and-aft sails, built primarily of wood. Popular from the 18th to early 20th centuries, they were used for trade, fishing, and transportation. Known for their speed and agility, these vessels played a vital role in maritime industries before the advent of modern steel ships and engines. Their classic wooden construction and distinctive sail plan make them iconic symbols of maritime history and craftsmanship.
