LADONA was built in 1922 for ocean racing and performed well in that role for nearly a decade. She was first converted for passenger-carrying in the 1970's, under the name of NATHANIEL BOWDITCH. In 2016, after the latest and most extensive of her several reconstructions, she was returned to Maine's windjammer fleet.
