Quotations
1895
Here [Blanc Sablon, Labrador] . . . I saw . . . the dapper little Labrador gasher--a small fishing craft not much longer than a dory, but with sharp prow and stern, and two masts fitted with reddish-brown sails. . . .
1895
The gashers [were] dashing in and out among the punts and jacks (stoutly built two-stickers larger than gashers).
