Compeer (schooner)

The Compeer, three-masted schooner of 347 tons and 450 M capacity, was built at Fairhaven, Calif., by Bendixsen in 1877. Her first owner is listed as one Nissen of San Francisco; after 1884 she was owned by Soren B. Peterson, who continued as managing owner for 28 years. On July 17, 1912, the Compeer was wrecked at Bristol Bay, Alaska, with a property loss of $25,000. The schooner is listed in Lloyd's Register for several years thereafter as owned by the Alaska Packers of San Francisco; but she does not seem to have been afloat.
