Welcome to the homepage of the S/V Isabella
Welcome to the Isabella's website! She is 38-foot wooden schooner constructed in Essex Massachusetts in 2006. The hull and gaff rigging are based on the design of the many similar fishing schooners built on Cape Ann in the early 1800's. She is now regularly berthed at the Davis & Tripp docks in Padanaram, Massachusetts. The Isabella can be seen when crossing the draw bridge in Padanaram when she is not sailing around Buzzards Bay or Nantucket Sound.
