Summary: Vintage and modern buyboats alike
Review: Buyboats may be little known outside of the Chesapeake region, but they are an intrinsic part of Chesapeake's history, evolving from sailing schooners and log canoes to provide both sail and conversion boats to families and small-time operators in the region. For years the boatwork was done with hand tools from scratch: Larry Chowning's Chesapeake Bay Buyboats provides an in-depth history and coverage and adds black and white photos of vintage and modern buyboats alike.
