Robert Carter enlightens us as to the fate of this vessel:

Thursday, 26 January 1837
" The boat, Cousins, sold to William Niele of Fermeuse by Mr. Holdsworth for J. and W. Sanders for £ 210, a boat of 41 tons built last winter."
John and William Sanders, who were cousins as the name of their jointly owned and built vessel implies, were the original registered owners but, for reasons unexplained here, chose to sell this vessel. The intermediary in the sale was Mr. Holdsworth is undoubtedly Henry Holdsworth, who was then responsible for the family business in Newfoundland, though that business was rapidly declining at this late stage of the family' s long involvement in the cod fish trade and related economic dealings. He is mentioned by his Christian name several times elsewhere in the diaries. Why he would have taken a hand in the sale of this vessel is not made clear. It is possible that the Sanders family was so deeply in debt to him that this arrangement was agreed to avoid the all too frequent court actions arising from such indebtedness of planters and fishermen to merchants.

• Occupation: Master of the THETIS owned by John Jennings, 2 Jul 1836, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. 180720:

Robert Carter's diary also refers to him as the Master of the THETIS which is owned solely by John Jennings:

Saturday 2 July 1836:
J. M. Rendell came here in the night in the THETIS, John Sanders, Master, from St. John's, left this evening.

• Census: Household of John and Catherine Sanders, 1800, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

• Owner: Boat owner, vessel name not given, 18 Oct 1835, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. On page 159 of Vol. 1

"Richard Sanders left in his boat last night for St. John's."

Most likely this was a small, unregistered vessel. His name does not appear in the ACSP records of ship owners.

• Owner: Either owner or co-owner of The BROTHERS, 5 Mar 1836, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Saturday, 5 March 1836
When the Brothers was launched in 1835 it was noted that the name of the registrant in that year was unknown though Carter indicated it was one of the Sanders family. Here he mentions that Richard Sanders is associated with the vessel, though not necessarily the owner: "Went on board the Brothers at the request of Richard Sanders and surveyed her equipment, found her sufficiently found in anchors, cables, etc." This does not necessarily mean that Richard was the sole owner. It could very well have been his in partnership with other members of his family including William and John who were known to be vessel owners and Masters.

This memorial, signed by Robert and fourteen other heads of families, was then forwarded to Lord Goderich, Secretary of State for the Colonies.

There is no record of his burial in either the Anglican or the RC cemeteries in Aquaforte, nor for that matter the non-denominational or Anglican (Forge Hill) cemetery in Ferryland. But if, as is suspected, his was a mixed marriage, the most likely place for him to be buried would be the southside non-denominational cemetery.
