A schooner was, in the words of the Tenth Doctor, a "nice little merchant ship". He and Martha Jones materialised on board one in the Caribbean Sea in 1800 — the final year of the Quasi-War. Judging by this example, schooners were exclusively wind-powered vessels, which had jibsails both fore and aft. The particular schooner on which the Doctor had landed had some number of cannons as well. (COMIC: Second Wave) The Mermaid and Governor Ready were schooners. (PROSE: Of the Mermaid and Jupiter)

The most common type of schooners, with two-masts, were popular in trades that required speed and windward ability, such as slaving, privateering, and blockade running.

- Such vessels were first used by the Dutch in the 16th or 17th century (but may not have been called that at the time - see etymology, below). Originally schooners were gaff-rigged, but modern schooners may be Bermuda-rigged.

The most common type of schooners, with two-masts, were popular in trades that required speed and windward ability, such as slaving, privateering, and blockade running. They were also traditional fishing boats, used for offshore fishing. In the Chesapeake Bay area several distinctive schooner types evolved, including the Baltimore clipper and the pungy. Schooners were popular on both sides of the Atlantic in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, but in Europe they gradually gave way to the cutter.
- The Schooner is a ship available in Tropico 2.
