Rachael & Maude

Description

Rachael & Maude was a wooden three-mast schooner from Providence, RI.

"Plate at Peabody Museum, Salem" was added based on info from duplicate entry.

In March 1883 she was dismasted during a voyage from Pascagoula, Miss. to Boston, but was able to rig a jury rig and, when spoken by the steam-ship Sorrento on March 26, refused outside help and signaled her wish to proceed on her own to Boston.
