About Denis Sullivan

SV Denis Sullivan is a three-masted wooden gaff rigged schooner originally from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The only existing replica of a 19th-century Great Lakes schooner, she was envisioned and built by a Milwaukee-based team of professionals and volunteers and was owned by the museum Discovery World. She was the flagship of both the state of Wisconsin and of the United Nations Environment Programme until Discovery World controversially sold her to the World Ocean School in late 2022. She then moved to Boston, Massachusetts, where World Ocean School is located, although her home port is still listed as Milwaukee for ceremonial reasons and because World Ocean School plans on maintaining her connection with the city.
