Retrieved on 2014-05-18. “The Petrel was built for Great Lakes fisheries protection. Proving too slow to cope with American fishing tugs, she was transferred to the Atlantic coast about 1904 on the grounds that she was fast enough to deal with schooners. The Vigilant took over the Great Lakes work.”
