A late 19th century illustration of a Dutch fishing boat known as a DOGGER. Used mainly in the North Sea, it was similar to a clinker built ketch but gaff-rigged on the main-mast, and carrying a lug sail on the mizzen, with two jibs on a long bowsprit. The British Royal Navy used some of these vessels fitted with cannons during the 17th century. It also found use as a goods carrier in the English Channel
