Peacock Canning Co. for $5,000. When the R.J.Peacock Canning Co. closed, she was sent to Southwest Harbor to "die". Eventually, the Beal was sold to Captain John Worth of Belfast in 1980 to be reconverted to her "original form" and used as a windjammer in the coastal schooner trade. After an idle season in 1989, she was sold to Captain Geoffrey Jones who sails her out of Greenport, Long Island, N. Y. [show more] | ||
