Hello, we're Capt. Brenda and Brian Thomas, owners Isaac H. Evans, one of Maine's famed windjammers. We take our guests on 3, 4, and 6-day sailing vacations on Penobscot Bay, often called the best cruising grounds in the world. We would like to welcome you aboard for a relaxing and fun trip, but until then, you can our web pages to get a better idea of what we do.

The Evans specializes in family trips. We started designating special "family trips" in 1988 and in 1999 decided to welcome children on all but our week long cruises. For the past several years we've been welcoming children on all of our cruises and have earned the reputation of "the family boat" because we spend lots of time exploring ashore and have activities and foods for the whole family. We don't stress education, but everyone learns something about nature, maritime history, and teamwork on a schooner. We even carry our own lobster traps and fishing poles! Anyone age 6 and older is welcome on any of our adventures. But family trips don't necessarily mean lots of young children. We've found that more and more families are joining us for multi-generational celebrations; reunions, birthdays, and anniversaries. The Evans is also perfect for corporate retreats, weddings, and other special events. Picture being anchored in a quiet harbor eating a delightful dinner on deck. Our combination of excellent food, knowledgeable crew, unmatched scenery and a magnificent vessel with modern conveniences, makes for an unforgettable vacation. We're the only windjammer to have received the Maine Tourism Award. It's a great honor and we're proud to offer award winning vacations. We were also featured on the cover of the 2004 Maine Invites You: Maine's Official Travel Planner and on the Maine Official Highway Map. We take great pride in the Isaac H. Evans and we're sure you will too.

Next season marks the 123rd anniversary for the Evans and we hope you come celebrate with us!
