Title: Models of Dutch Kat-Wyck Fishing Boat and Spritsail Rigged Dutch Coasting Vessel, circa 1781
Caption: Models of Dutch Kat-Wyck Fishing Boat and Spritsail Rigged Dutch Coasting Vessel, circa 1781. Another Dutchman of staunch construction is this Kat-Wyck Fishing Boat which was made in Holland. It is complete in every detail of rigging and equipment. Owned by Mr. Henry A. Morss. The sturdy lines of D'Jonge Tjeerd are copied from a Spritsail Rigged Dutch Coasting Vessel which was made in Holland about 1781. No doubt the original was built to carry cargoes of Dutch tiles and Edam cheese. Owned by Mrs. Henry G. Vaughan.
