Cadenza was built in 2003 at Rockport Marine by shipwright John England from a design by L. Frances Herreshoff. The design was modified slightly by Doug Hylan to move the mizzen aft in order to make the steering more comfortable, effectively turning the original ketch sail plan into a yawl.
Cadenza is built traditionally with mahogany and cedar planking on oak frames. While the original Rozinante design was set up for rowing as auxiliary power, Cadenza has an 8 HP Yammer diesel.
Austral’s design is an outgrowth of my 26' Wynfall design, intended to provide additional space below decks, including standing headroom. She is slightly heavier, longer and wider, and has more freeboard than her smaller sister.
