Spy Agent 8 filed their report of the annual Small Craft Festival below:
The weather cooperated for the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum’s annual Small Craft Festival last week. Dozens of kayaks, canoes, sailboats, powerboats, and even a few cardboard boats were on display on museum grounds or in the water. This Spy particularly loved the wood kayaks. Are they too nice to put in the water? Some would be at home in an art museum.
The sky was cloudy on Saturday morning, but as a large and enthusiastic crowd gathered to share their passion for small boats, the sun came out.
Many of the boats are hand built and as sea-worthy as a Boston Whaler.
Participants were universally friendly and ready to share how they got into the hobby and how they built their boat.
A good time was had by all. This Spy has requested assignment to cover the Festival again next year.
This video is approximately one minute in length.
