One-mast hooker (Eennasthoeker)

Post by Anatol » Tue Nov 11, 2025 8:52 am

A tjalk-like fishing vessel, sometimes rigged as a barquentine. So called because it fished with hook gear. Later also used as a merchant ship. See also "Eenmasthoeker" (One-mast hooker), "Boston Irish hooker," and "Galway hooker."
