HI SLUTS! Guess who got high and started looking through sailboat racing archives? THIS GIRL! I have returned from my spiritual journey to deliver onto you the choicest of Skipjack and "Log Canoe" photos. You're welcome.

Skipjacks are oyster harvesting ships designed around a legal loophole. Oyster dredgers had their power legally limited by being restricted to only one mast, so how do you keep dredging more oyster. STUFF THAT ONE MAST WITH AS MUCH SAIL AS POSSIBLE

Look at her! One Mast, 4 sails, 0 problems!

With the advent of motor boats many skipjacks and their cousins the "Log Canoes" were abandoned in favor of motorized dredgers. In boggy marshes these princes of the Chesapeake were left to molder, open graves for all to view their majesty in decay.

modern skipjacks are a popular racing vessel and they are beautiful sights dancing on the bay. I just want these two boats to kiss so bad.

"Log Canoes" are the smaller, crazier cousins of the Slipjacks. Originally made from hollowed out logs, they were continuously optimized for SPEED! This is because the first oysterman to return to the Buy Boat(big boats that bought fresh oysters from other boats to sell in market) would get the best price for their oysters, so every day was racing day.

Log Canoes have also become a modern racing boats carrying on the tradition of teeny tiny boats going ridiculously fast. You can see in these photos that they are so small, and their sails are so big, that they need "Boardmen" whose job it is to put down and then sit on long boards. These sluts are living counterweights to make sure that when the boat is moving perpendicular to the wind it doesn't capsize.

and if they mess up they will capsize, and then you're left looking like an idiot until you either manage to right the ship or the regata's official comes by in their boat.

Also I don't know why but middle-aged dads have never looked sluttier than when they are hanging off a tiny sailing vessel with their legs all stretched out trying not to fall into the Bay.

Cold day fossiling by the bay with the Hot Wife. Found shark teeth, ray dental plates, a piece of bone, coral (Astrhelia palmata), pieces of sand dollar (Abertella aberti), and pieces of murex shell (Ecphora gardnerae).

I remember when they started educating us about oysters and their importance to the bay! They would set up booths at festivals in Baltimore with aquariums full of oysters. It was very cool - I don't remember the year they started but 2014 seems about right.

Maryland has been working with other states on conservation efforts. We have made steps towards protecting the Chesapeake Bay, which is the largest estuary in the United States. The hard work seems to be paying off!
