Master Carpenter's Certificate--------
Usually a brief printed document, found in various sizes. The form often included the phrase "___do certify that the ___named the ___was built by me or under my direction at ___during the year __for ____...." Title of the certificate and the port of issue was usually printed at the top. A rather plain document with little or no engraving. S**ps or seals seldom appear, and customs officials' signatures were not required.
This document was procured from the customhouse once the construction of a new vessels was finished. It was filled out and singed by the builder or carpenter, and contained spaces to record the vessel's name, measurements, the place and year of construction, and the names of the original owners. The vessel could then, if necessary, by moved from where it was built to where it was to be registered or sold. In fact this document was required before any registration or enrollment could be issued, since it established a ship's origin and ownerhship. |
