THE REVENUE CUTTER
The idea of chasing Smugglers with
cutters was a good one. In those early
days, through false economy, an un-
satisfactory type of vessel was used.
The Revenue Cutters of the early
19th century were very fine ships
with a single tall mast very like the
paval cutters used for carrying des-
patches. Often the Government
(very wisely) went to the yards
famous for building fast Smugglers.
Some of the cutters, with their huge
sail-area, were very fast and suf-
ficiently well-armed to tackle any
Smuggler.
