Comet was a sailing yacht that was built by Lewis H. Clark and George A. Clark for Alvaro Adsit. It was launched around 1875 and was used to ferry both people and merchandise between Ligonier Point and Burlington and Ligonier Point to Plattsburgh for years. Comet was purchased by Palmer E. Havens and updated by the Clarks in order to be used for racing on Lake Champlain. For a time Comet was known as the fastest boat on the lake. Comet was later used for racing on the Hudson River.
