Among the ships that wrecked was the barkentine "Priscilla". In 1901 Roberts sailed on a barkentine to Brazil. The rig was changed to barkentine (square sail on foremast only). On "Barkentine", the San Diego Troubadour notes the originality of her album. The barkentine "Planter" followed with a second sugar cargo from Honolulu shortly thereafter.
