Greg-

Yes, the Hesper and Luther Little, two four-masted lumber schooners, are no more. We used to enjoy prowling their tilted decks when we were teenagers. However, the C. F. Thayer, a lumber schooner docked at the National Maritime Museum in San Francisco, has recently been completely rebuilt. And the Charles W, Morgan at the Mystic Seaport Museum has been recently hauled out of the water for a complete rebuild.

Best of luck to those still working to preserve the Adelaide.
