In 1911 she was sold to the Western Fuel Co. as a coal barge and in 1916 was refitted by the Union Oil Co. as a tank-barge, with a bald-headed four-masted schooner rig. She got ashore on Point Gorda shortly afterwards, and $100,000 was spent renewing her bottom. In 1922 she was sold to Mexican owners as a storage barge as Manzanillo, coming back to San Francisco in 1929 for repairs. While lying in the Oakland Estuary she capsized in a southeaster on January 7, 1930. The wreck was raised some three years later and scuttled in deep water in San Francisco Bay.

Scope and Content Note

HAWAIIAN ISLES was built for A. Nelson of Honolulu to sail under the Hawaiian flag in the sugar trade between Hawaii and South America. She changed hands in 1900, when Welch & Company of San Francisco purchased her (bringing her under the American flag), and again in 1906 when she passed to the Matson Navigation Company. Three years later she joined the Alaska Packers Association fleet as STAR OF GREENLAND and sailed for seventeen years between San Francisco and the Alaska canning fisheries. Laid up for three years, in 1929 she was acquired by the Swedish Abraham Rydberg Foundation (Rydbergska Stiftelsen) as a replacement for their steel ship, ABRAHAM RYDBERG. (The Foundation's second sail-training ship was built in 1912 by Bergsunds M.V. Aktieb, Stockholm. In 1928 she was sold to an American for use as a private yacht named SEVEN SEAS.) Captain Sune Tamm sailed her to Dublin with a load of barley for the Guinness brewery, and she was then given a Liverpool house amidships to accommodate forty cadets; her gross tonnage increased to 2,345. Now called ABRAHAM RYDBERG, she joined the grain trade between Australia and Europe. Following the outbreak of World War II, she sailed between South America and the United States. In 1943 she was sold to Julio Ribeiro Campos of Oporto and traded between Portugal and South America. Given auxiliary diesel engines in 1945, she was gradually down-rigged until she ceased to be a sailing ship. Ten years later she was laid up, and in 1957 she was broken up at La Spezia.

Note on envelope says, "Arch Rock being drilled for blasting. Shag Rock dredging being done after blasting."
Three rocks were destroyed in the San Francisco Harbor between 1900 and 1901: Shag Rock No. 1, Shag Rock No. 2 and Arch Rock. Shag Rocks No. 1 and 2 were in a line from Alcatraz to Sausalito and almost directly in front of the Golden Gate. Shag Rock No. 1 was north of Arch Rock.
The contractor hired to blow up the three rocks was Rudolph Axman of Los Angeles (sometimes referred to as Rudolph Axemann and Robert Axman).
Shag Rock No. 1 (also known as Barrel Rock) was blown up on April 30, 1900. He next blew up Shag Rock No. 2 (also known as Little Shag Rock) which was completely submerged under water, on September 5, 1900. There was a second explosion on November 24, 1900, to remove debris from the former explosion.
Preparations to blow up Arch Rock (located midway between Alcatraz Island and Lime Point) begain in September 1900, and the crown was blown off Arch Rock on November 4, 1900. The rest of Arch Rock was blown up on August 15, 1901.

Scope and Content Note

View includes a "forest" of masts in the background. Additional information included inside the print enclosure: "Like barren trees, the fleet of seasoned old State-of-Mainers that wintered in Oakland Creek looked forward to April. If they were fortunate enough to secure a charter from the Alaska Packers Association, April was usually the month that found them blossoming with sail once again outside the Golden Gate. In the early years of the century, the Alaska Packers owned comparatively few ships, and usually chartered at least half of its fleet from the laid up fleet in the Creek. Wooden downeasters predominated in the early years of the trade; only seven of the twenty-four square-riggers in the 1902 fleet were of iron or steel construction. In another decade the famous "Star" fleet was largely assembled, outnumbering the earlier wooden ships, and dominating the trade until the first steamer was bought by the company in 1925. The last two vessels to go north under sail, STAR OF ALASKA and STAR OF HOLLAND, made their final voyage in 1929. In all, the company had owned nineteen vessels with the "Star" prefix, all of iron or steel construction."

W.G. IRWIN was built as a brigantine and re-rigged as a schooner from 1913-1926.
Vessel History: W.G. IRWIN was built as a brigantine in 1881 for J.D. Spreckels as a Hawaii sugar packet. She was later transferred to the Oceanic Steamship Co., which was largely owned by the Spreckels family. In 1901 she was sold out of the Island trade, to the Tacoma & Roche Harbor Lime Co. She was re-rigged as a three-masted schooner of 400 m capacity between September 1912 and July 1913. In 1917, she was sold for $28,000 to Capt. Alex Woodside for the offshore copra trade. She was taken over a year or so later by the Bank of Italy; and was laid up at San Francisco in July 1920, after arrival from Samoa. Two years later she was reported going to pieces rapidly, and was shortly thereafter sold to Famous-Players-Lasky and burned at Catalina, May 15, 1926.
