Buy boats traveled up and down the Chesapeake Bay to buy the daily catch from working fishing boats. With buy boats serving as efficient middlemen between the fishermen and markets, fishing boats could stay on the water longer. The Half Shell is a restored buy boat that now serves as a Living Classroom, providing on-board learning experiences for school children from the Washington D.C. area.
This photo was taken while the Half Shell was docked at Leesylvania State Park, on the Potomac River.
