Administrative history
The Vincent A. White was a tern schooner built in Alma, New Brunswick, in 1918 and registered in Parrsboro, Nova Scotia. She was launched on 7 August 1918 and assigned flag call TNLC. By the 1920s she was well known as a rum runner. Her name was changed to Estonia in 1926 and her port of registry to Lunenburg. In 1935 the Estonia sailed from Turk’s Island, West Indies, and encountered a heavy storm, losing her sails and rudder, and was abandoned in a sinking condition.
