Tjalk Pietertje

[offshore]

In 1897 in Baltic Sea sank tjalk or kuff  Pietertje, built in Holland, J.N.Nihuis in Sappemer, call signal PQJC -but not sure, built 1858 but not sure, some other sources says 1868.
I`m looking for any info of her, especially  who was the owner of tjalk when she sank, the schiffer name was Tonkens, but this says nothing to me.

Hi Offshore,
long time, no hear. I guess you found something interesting...
Have you tried this Database: https://www.marhisdata.nl/zoeken&s=schip? Just enter Pietertje as ship name, I got 10 hits. The one built in 1868 could be the one you are looking for.
Best regards,
Ralf
