History
ISIS was designed by W T Adams and built at the yard of WH Watty at Fowey in in 1905. She was designed as a yacht and apparently has always been used for leisure sailing. In 1920 she was moved to the east coast and in 1922 fitted with a Berguis Kelvin engine. In 1947 she was registered in London and then in 1962 in Chichester. A Petter diesel engine was fitted in 1978 before being recorded in Singapore in 1980. By 2007 she was back in Porthleven,Cornwall. April 2010
