Maggie Lee, Traditional fishing vessel in Maryland, US
The Maggie Lee features a flat hull design with one mast, measuring approximately 50 feet in length and built for oyster harvesting operations.
During the late 19th century, skipjacks emerged as essential tools for oyster dredging in the Chesapeake Bay, with Maggie Lee representing this maritime tradition.
The National Register of Historic Places includes the Maggie Lee as a testament to Maryland's enduring connection with traditional fishing methods and boat construction.
Visitors can observe the vessel's traditional rigging system and construction techniques that demonstrate the engineering principles of Chesapeake Bay watercraft.
The preservation of Maggie Lee provides physical evidence of the specific adaptations made to sailing vessels for oyster harvesting in shallow waters.
