Title
English: Barkentine S.N. CASTLE, Port Townsend, ca. 1893
Description
English:

On verso of image: Windhjammers loading at Port Townsend. In the early '90s such scenes as this were common at Puget Sound ports as the sailing vessels loaded lumber, grain and general freight for world markets. S.N. CASTLE. Built at Port Blakely. SNC at far right.

The S.N. CASTLE was a three-masted schooner of 514 tons, built by Hall Bros. in 1886 as a three-masted barkentine. After long service in the Hawaiian sugar trade, the Bering Sea codfishery and South Seas copra trade, she was towed to southern California in January 1926 for use in a motion picture and burned at Catalina February 17, 1926. (pg. 376) Notes from Gordon Newell, ed., The H.W. McCurdy Marine History of the Pacific Northwest (Seattle: Superior Publishing Co, 1966).
