Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Theresa E. Conner, the last of the salt bank schooners to operate from the port of Lunenburg. The schooner was launched in Lunenburg on December 14, 1938 at the Smith and Rhuland Shipyard, the same yard that built the Bluenose.
The vessel fished as a dory schooner for 25 years. During that time the crew used double (two-man) dories and fished with long trawl lines of baited hooks.In the spring of 1963, Captain Harry Oxner attempted to take Theresa E. Connor on one last dory trip to the Banks. With a small crew, they sailed from Lunenburg to Newfoundland, but they were unable to find a sufficient number of men to make the trip. Technology had changed from hook and line to trawlers with huge nets. Fishermen were no longer willing to risk life and limb aboard dories. Theresa E. Connor slipped quietly back into port, the last of the once great fleet of Lunenburg salt bankers. |
