Chesapeake Bay Two Log Canoe

Originally built in 1876 by Henry reeman of Poquoson, the Kaynoo is a two log Poquoson canoe measuring 22 feet long and weighing one ton. Made from two enormous pine trees that were hollowed out and bolted together, it was first intended to carry 25 bushels of oysters, but its beautiful lines led to its use only for pleasure and racing. It was last sailed in 1995 and stands as an example of the great boat building skills of Poquoson craftsman.
