Disagreement between sections
[edit]Lede says: Owned by Ann Trenholm of Louisbourg, Nova Scotia, by 1937 Donald II was out of service and needed work to be made seaworthy as she hadn’t been under sail since her master's death.
The next section (MacGregor Arctic Expedition) says: Donald II was purchased by Clifford J. MacGregor in 1936 for what would become known as the MacGregor Arctic Expedition. Lieutenant Commander Isaac Schlossbach was tasked with bringing the schooner from Nova Scotia to New Jersey. With “Dusty” Dustin, a veteran of Byrd’s Second Antarctic Expedition, Captain Frasier Wilcox and H.L. Fleet, they departed Louisbourg late in 1936, with a cargo destined for Boston. By the spring of 1937 Donald II was in Port Newark, New Jersey where new motors were installed and the vessel reinforced and reconditioned for the expedition. Questions: 1) who owned the ship in 1936-1937? 2) Where was the ship in 1936-1937? 3) What was the ship's condition during that time?? TIA --Spray787 (talk) 13:31, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
