Description
The Ardelle is a 2011 full-size replica of a Pinky Schooner built by Harold Burnham of Essex, Mass. Pinky schooners were a commen type fishing vessel that sailed out of Cape Ann harbors from the early eighteenth century through the early twentieth century. In 1839 there were 64 registered to the port of Gloucester, Ma alone. They were generally smaller vessels from which men fished over the side but were known for their weatherlyness and seaworthyness.
Pinkys developel from the early Chebacco boats and a good many were built at Essex. These vessels were built to a very high standard and some lasted a very long time. The original sch. Maine was launched at Essex in 1845 and sailed until 1926. Ardelle is a typical full-rigged clipper Pinky and her design is largely based on the original Maine. Her dimensions are: length on rail 55'; length o.a. 67'; beam 14.5'; sail area 1,100 sq.ft.
