Codseeker
''Codseeker'' was a fishing schooner launched in April, 1877 that capsized east of Cape Sable Island, at the southwestern tip of Nova Scotia.〔Easton, Alan〕
==Description==
The schooner ''Codseeker'' was constructed at Port Clyde, Nova Scotia in 1877 by Thomas Coffin & Company.〔Easton, Alan〕 At the time, the Coffin's were known for their beautifully crafted ships, mostly schooners and square-rigged ships which sailed all over the world.〔Easton, Alan〕 She was a graceful, wooden vessel, constructed for the profitable, yet dangerous fishing along the coasts of Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.
The schooner was long, with a beam that reached .〔Easton, Alan〕 ''Codseeker'' had a net gross ton of 42 and registered ton of 29.5.〔Easton, Alan〕 The elegant vessel sailed with the standard rigging and gaf topsail. A schooner with her dimensions would have required a certain amount of ballast to combat lateral forces against the sail. However, ''Codseeker'' was not built with the customary amount of counterbalance, most likely due to the schooner's depth.〔Murphy, William M.〕
