Specialist note

This four-masted bark sailed for thirty-five years under a variety of names. Built in 1891 by W. H. Potter & Son for Marshall Macvicar in Liverpool, England, she became the Werner Vinner in 1910 when she was owned by E.C. Schramm in Breman, Germany, in 1915 she was sold to Houlder, Middleton Co., London, England and finally in 1925 she was renamed The Bellands of the Bell Line, Hull, England. This ship was one of the last owned by the Bell Line and she was dismantled by shipbreakers in 1926.
