Patricia (log canoe)

The Patricia is a Chesapeake Bay log canoe built in 1942 by Oliver Duke.

The Patricia has a slightly hollow longhead bow and a sharp stern.

She is one of twenty-two traditional Chesapeake Bay racing log canoes existing today.

The Patricia, and boats like her, carry on a tradition of racing on the Eastern Shore of Maryland that has existed since the 1840s.
