I n t e r n a t i o n a l M a r i t i m e L i b r a r y Documenting Maritime History for Future Generations
T is is the fi ve-masted schooner FANNIE PALMER
being launched at the George L. Welt shipyard in Waldoboro in November 1900. She was built for William F. Palmer and named for his two-year old daughter. She had a length of 266.1 feet, beam, 44.6, depth 25.1 and 2,258 tons displacement with a carrying capacity of 3,700 tons. She was considered a unlucky vessel. She went ashore on her maiden voyage in Cape Charles, VA and remained there for several months. She was sold and renamed GEORGE P. HUDSON and she again went ashore off Shinnecock Light, Long Island, New York. In 1911 she caught fi re at Sewall’s Point, Norfolk, VA, while loading coal. Two years later she was in collision with the schooner MARGARET HASKELL off Vineyard Haven, MA. Her end came in a collision with the SS MIDDLESEX, near Great Round Shoal, MA on July 11, 1914. Captain T omas and two seamen were lost.
