Historical or Biographical Note
Vessel History: The C.A. Thayer is a wooden-hulled, three-masted schooner, designed for carrying lumber. She was built in
1895 in Northern California at Hans D. Bendixsen's shipyard in Fairhaven, CA. The original hull was made of dense, old-growth
Douglas fir carefully chosen for shipbuilding. She sailed with a small crew consisting of four seamen, two mates, a cook,
and the captain.
