Three-masted schooner; 156 feet. Built 1895, Fairhaven, Cal. This schooner is representative of hundreds that sailed the Pacific Coast. In Puget Sound ports eight-man crews piled the deck high with Douglas fir, the raw material for California's cities in the early 20th century. Thayer later carried small boats and fishing crews to Alaska for salmon and cod.
